Carl Dunrud giving Amelia Earhart a haircut, 1934

This picture is, as far as I can tell, in the public domain. As the site where I found it requests, it comes from wyomingtalesandtrails.com.

Thanks, Dow. I couldn't believe how young Earhart looked here. Like a kid, but 37 here.

Carl Dunrud was a ranch owner in the area, and the mountain this picture is attached to is named for him. He's giving a haircut to Amelia Earhart not long before she disappeared on her infamous flight. He was friends with her husband and was building a cabin for her near the ranch when she died.

Thanks for that. I never heard about Amelia before. I just red her story on the french wikipedia.
