Oversize 5″ x 7″, company-issued postcard. Since Ozark Air Lines acquired its first DC-9s in 1966, I would suppose this card dates from about then. Ozark lasted from 1950 to 1986, when it was bought out by TWA. The company was based in St. Louis.

Easily one of my favorite airline cards. This great 1947 shot, unattributed except for the “Kodachrome by Trans World Airline” cut line, is of a DC-3.
This same shot, on an earlier card, is noted as a “Color Foto by Trans World Airline”.
It’s a linen-finish card. On the back is the TWA logo and “Litho in U.S.A. – 3-265, 9 -47”
