The Tribune photo, dated September 27, 1987, has the following caption on the back: "Mike Peck sells raffle tickets for radio-controlled Cessna 180 he carries on his shoulder." The model Cessna, with a wingspan that would probably come up to his shoulder from the ground, is perched nose down on his left shoulder, while Peck tries to sell raffle tickets to an audience that is not paying him much attention.
