Airstream is a brand of trailer manufactured in Jackson Center, Ohio. The company
was created by Wally Byam, a lawyer by training, who began building trailers out of Masonite in his backyard in Los Angeles during the late 1920s. The shape of the
Airstream dates back to the 1930s and is based on designs created by Hawley
Bowlus. Bowlus was the chief designer of Charles Lindbergh‘s aircraft, the Spirit
of St. Louis.

Blondie is a radio situation comedy adapted from the long-run Blondie comic
strip by Chic Young. The radio program was originally a summer replacement

sponsor, R.J. Reynolds’s Camel Cigarettes chose to keep Blondie on the air
from 1939 to 1950 on several networks. 

‘Fruit Garden and Home’ was the first issue of what would later become
