An image showing an aerial view of Boulder City. The outlines of the small city are distinctively marked by the stark contrast between the city's greenery and the surrounding desert. In the far distance, the shores of Lake Mead can be seen peaking out from behind the mountains. Note: Bits of the airplane from which the image itself was taken can be seen in the upper right corner of the photograph.
Typed onto a piece of paper attached to the image: "Mayor Fiorello Laguardia welcoming Howard Hughes and his four-man crew after flight Around the World. 7/15/38."
