"Air Circus" Product Placement
Image
"Air Circus" (Fox 1928) is the story of two flight school cadets (only David Rollins is pictured) and an accomplished aviatrix, Sue Carol, who can fly rings around them. This motion picture is notable as the first of Howard Hawks's many aviation films. Originally part-talkie, "Air Circus" is now available only in its silent version. And what is the product placement? The propellers were manufactured in Milwaukee by the Hamilton Aero Manufacturing Co.
