- Description
Left half of a cartoon in two sheets; other half at B-156-130.
At the left, two road workers frown as they look at the furrows gouged by trolley buses. At the right, workers at Rongotai Aerodrome discuss subdivision plans, in front of a hangar, with a rocket launch-pad in the background.
Other Titles - \"One thing about trams, they used to break-up the roads just down the middle - these trolley buses do it all over\"
Other Titles - \"I see that now that rockets don't need any runways they're going to sub-divide part of the 'drome into housing lots\"
Date estimated as post Second World War. Estimated as pre-1950 because Lodge has not yet established his habit of incorporating the date into his signature.
