Just post any picture you have or come across for aircraft of this era. And dont see a need to start a new thread for it.

In this case, a Vulcan and a B52 in flight over Edwards AFB. July 10th 1961

The problem with the Vulcan was that it did not have enough wing area! I have actually seen one of these at an airshow in Pensacola and walked underneath. Talk about an aluminum overcast, or, maybe I should say aluminium overcast.
