Very cool. I noticed two things when I looked at the photo on Etsy:

  1. A clue that this is a mock-up could be the air vent in an unusual place at the top of the rear wall. I think that, aboard a real aircraft, there would be a space for cables up at the top of the entire fuselage. (I'm not an expert on aircraft, so just sayin' or thinkin' out loud...)

  2. The Etsy description stated that this photo came from the estate of a Boeing ephemera collector. This reminds me that you can spend your entire life collecting all kinds of cool stuff only to eventually have to give it all back. Someday I, too, may be referred to as a "tiki ephemera" collector. I wonder who will eventually get my unconsumed rum bottles, and will they appreciate them?

Ha...
