I know everybody has his own livery preferences, and so do I. There were several 377 liveries for Pan Am. The earlier ones were what we saw on the ramp. The first time the 707 landed on a Pan Am ramp people forgot all about the Strats. I guess they slapped the meatball on the tail to make it match the jet. I flew from Tokyo to Honolulu on this plane, the Queen of the Pacific, in December of 1955. One year before, an engine and prop parted company from the airplane. Fortunately they were able to limp into Johnson Island. Love to see a model of one of these.
