L-Line Trucks and Silver Diamond Engine, Havana | Photograph | Wisconsin Historical Society
Original caption reads: "Two examples of the modern age of communication and transportation meet in the open air display of new International L-line trucks at the International Harvester Havana Conference as members of various Latin-American distributor firms wearing individual receiving sets gather around the new Silver Diamond valve-in-hand engine displayed as a cutaway working model. The receiving sets are part of the translating-transmitting equipment used at the meeting to give the audience speeches in either Spanish or English simultaneously. Selection of channels on these small radio receiving sets allows easy choice of language."
