Description: FRESH FROM A LOCAL CINCINNATI ESTATE! 1950'sLISTENING TO THE STARS ELLIOTT SERVICE COMPANY LARGE FORMAT PHOTOGRAPH ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Description: CAPTION BANNER: The 90-foot diameter radio telescope near Big Pine, California, gets an adjustment made by an engineer standing atop a special Colson maintenance lift. The California Institute of Technology operates the giant receiver, listening for radio signals from stars millions of miles from earth.PHOTOGRAPHER: Photograph From Elliott Service Company, Inc., Mount Vernon, New York. COMMENTS: This Large Format poster size photo comes from a collection found in an estate in the Shandon, Ohio area just north of Cincy. It is part of a large collection of these rare images that were collected many years ago by the gentleman who originally owned them, when he was a youth. This Scarce Giant Oversize photo shows a great glimpse of a Historic Moment In Time. It will look great framed and matted (to me, the ideal display would be the photo above the banner). I hope you find this piece of history as interesting as I do!
