The "Lost Evidence" photograph of a dock at Jaluit

Not kept here. This copy isn't ours to show. See it where it's published.

Shown in 2017 as Earhart and Noonan in Japanese custody in 1937; the same image appears in a book published in 1935, two years before the flight. Recorded because the capture reading leaned on it.
