Goodyear blimp hovers above Evening Herald building to pick up newspapers for a special delivery to Los Angeles City Hall, November 5, 1931Who knew that the Goodyear blimp made special delivery runs? This shot was taken on November 5, 1931, which was the 20th anniversary of the Los Angeles Evening Herald. On that day, a Goodyear blimp named “The Volunteer” hovered over the newspaper’s headquarters at 1111 South Broadway to pick up a bundle of Twentieth Birthday editions which it then dropped off at Los Angeles City Hall. I guess these are the perks when you’ve got William Randolph Hearst as a boss.
