Couple on first of three steps leading into airplane. From back of photo: "Raoul Herbert Fleischmann and Bride Mrs. Louis D. Munds - divorced. United Air Lines photo. Nov 30, 1939." From caption only portion of a published photo reads: "Sun Mar 31 1985 Raoul Fleischmann . . ." The woman is looking down at an orchid in a small box she is holding in her right gloved hand. She is wearing a dark hat that covers her hair and ears and part of her forehead, dark suit and black high heel pumps. Over her right arm is what appears to be a full length mink coat and black handbag. Next to her the man is wearing a dark suit with narrow vertical stripes, white shirt, dark tie and dark shoes. In his hands he holds a dark fedora hat with dark band. He is looking off to the left of the photographer. The three steps into the airplane are white and have writing on each one that is obscured by the couple. Just inside the airplane are two seats with white covers. In the upper left of the photo are two square airplane windows. In the first window a man is looking out at the photographer. Under the body of the plane on the other side is what could be a baggage cart.
