About This Item
1990. Hardcover. Good. Large HEAVY book (six pounds), filled with color photographs and a plethora of diagrams on heavy, glossy, paper stock. The DJ is rubbed, scraped, with deeper scratches on the back cover. Crimping and scraping along cover edges. Tears to the DJ at upper edge of spine has been repaired with scotch tape. Black textured boards, with red foil titling and duplicating the front of DJ. As noted, this book is heavy, and as such, the lower corner of back board is quite dented, with the other cover tips being minorly so. Head of spine is dented, with heel of spine being more so. Red paste downs and end pages are free of markings. Outer edges of glossy pages appear to have light tanning to them, but very faintly. This book will appeal to aviation buffs. 329 pages.
