A different photograph of the same plane crash appears with the caption, "Propeller Comes Off, Wrecking Airplane Wreckage of Lieut. Browne Clement's' army pursuit plane in grain field at Monterey Park with March Field mechanics disassembling it for return to airport. Propeller shown in foreground was retrieved from front yard 500 yards away. Times photo," Los Angeles Times, 05 Apr. 1936: 2
A grain field in Monterey Park stretches across the foreground and back through the image. In the near distance at center, the wreckage of Lieutenant Browne Clement's aircraft lies crumpled on the ground. Along part of the plane, it reads, "52." The tail of the plane sits hidden behind a group of several investigators, who stand in a cluster to the right of the aircraft. Beyond the wreckage site, the field extends into the distance and towards 2 low mountains that rise at far left and far right.
This photograph is related to the article, "Death Ends Honeymoon: CRASH KILLS ARMY FLYER Plane Propeller Comes Off, Wrecking Wing, and Ship Goes Into Spin," Los Angeles Times, 05 Apr. 1936: 1
