    Having served there in 1968-71 it is the beginnings of Norton AFB then known as San Bernardino AAfld, the planes change but not the terrain. The photo is looking South-east with runway 24/6 being lay out with the Santa Ana River bed in the background. The O-birds are from the 10th or 31st Observation Squadron which are listed as being station there at the note date on the photo. Best regards Tom

    Getting ready for the Great Teddy Bear Run? ... On second thoughts, I don't think he'll want to be donating that particular teddy!

    " The first Norton logo was a fairly simple, art nouveau design, with the name spelled in capitals.[as here] However, a new logo appeared on the front of the catalogue for 1914, which was a joint effort by James Lansdowne Norton and his daughter Ethel. It became known as the "curly N" logo, with only the initial letter as a capital, and was used by the company thereafter, first appearing on actual motorcycles in 1915. "

    Implying the Norton is pre-1915 ?
