A vertically oriented, black-and-white photograph portrait depicts Margo Bain Tanner, a woman with a light skin tone, from the chest up in a biplane cockpit. Facing our right, she wears a white flight cap and collared shirt, her lips curved in a slight smile. A dark curl of hair rests against her forehead. She is framed by diagonal metal struts and wires beneath an angled wing. Large, billowing white clouds fill the upper right sky.
