Picture of my Great Uncle from the Zeppelin Wars of '32

Here's a picture of my Great Uncle battling it out with the evil Dr. Strang before he can escape in his Autogyro.


Just kidding, I found this on ebay. It's a promotional still from the movie serial "The Whispering Shadow". That's Bela Lugosi in the back seat of the Plane.

In a total coincidence, I just saw the 1932 movie "International House," in which W.C. Fields (of all people) pilots an autogyro. Further coincidence, it co-stars Bela Lugosi. The Fields version of the autogyro is equipped with a tiny two-seater automobile that he drives out of the fuselage, but I seriously doubt that the real ones had any such feature!

Very cool, Scott.

Damn you, Dr. Strang!
