Framed Print of Gatow Airport, Berlin, 1948
Photograph showing a York transport airplane at Gatow Airport, during the Berlin Airlift, 1948. In the background of the image, extension work on the runway can be seen being undertaken. Between April 1948 and May 1949 Josef Stalin, leader of the USSR, imposed a land blockade on supplies from Western Europe to West Berlin. In response the British and American governments organised an enormous airlift to supply food and other essentials to the 2.5 million inhabitants of West Berlin. After a year Stalin conceded defeat and lifted the land blockade. Mary Evans Picture Library makes available wonderful images created for people to enjoy over the centuries. © Illustrated London News Ltd/Mary Evans
