Michael O'Leary recently sent me a copy of this photo from the Doug Fisher collection. It is particularly interesting to me because it gives a good view of the Tallman Aviation at Flabob Airport. Tallman Aviation was established c. 1958 and merged into Tallmantz in late 1961. There is no record of Tallman Aviation ever actually being incorporated in California, so it was most likely a sole-proprietor business. I did add this photo to the Tallman photo gallery seen here: https://www.aerovintage.com/tallmantz-a ... gallery-1/ plus another interesting one of Tallman friend and future employee, air show pilot Art Scholl.
