Once again thank you for the P-61 photos, I was very exited to see that you had posted more!

I'm curious, where did these pics come from?

i have seen them on footnote.com , which has quite an archive ; WWII / US Air Force Photos
ps, when searching, Consolidated is not the brand but rather everything they haven't got a brand for ...

-you would do the same, i'm hoping.
another trick there is the 'none entered' just means captions (or none entered yet,) etc. and there is often heaps more there but without i.d.s
