The Mutual Aircraft Service was a 1920s venture to build airplanes, but fell victim to the Great Depression after having built one plane, the Mutual Blackbird. The Blackbird was designed by Italian-American Giuseppe Bellanca, who designed and built the first enclosed cockpit monoplane in the US and went on to create his own successful aircraft building company.

The single Blackbird was built in 1929 and damaged in a crash the following year. It sat in a garage until 1994, when it was discovered and restored and is now on display at the Gig Harbor Antique Airplane Museum in Washington.

Maybe one of you fine people can tell me about the car.

The car appears to be a 1930 Standard Avon.

Thanks! I was hoping somebody would chime in.

I'm uncertain if I am actually correct, but there is some resemblance. The Standard Avon looks smaller, the more I look at it...
