This section of the website is dedicated to our Lockheed Engineer’s Office exhibit.
It is a full-scale reproduction of what a hard-working Project Engineer’s Drafting Office might have looked like at the Lockheed Plant in Burbank, CA, in the 1939 thru the 1940’s.
It was built by our own Howard Ramshorn and Tim Mallis, with a helping hand from then member Ira Newman.
When you click on the thumbnail +, it will take you to a larger version of the photo. Just click the x at the top to close and come back here.
