a(LRV)_v_bw_o_n (unnumbered, verso hand-annotated B-196-9)

The right front tire of an engineering model/flight test article LRV, offering an excellent view of the ingenious wheel/tread design. Note the transparency through the mesh 'weave'.

The “FENDERS NON FLT.” decal and what might be “NON(?)-OPERATIONAL HARDWARE” tags would support this being an engineering model. I’d otherwise expect the usual “REMOVE BEFORE FLIGHT” tags. Right?
