Washington, DC: The National Geographic Society,1943. The November,1943 issue, Volume LXXXIV, Number Five."Cruise on an Escort carrier". Quarto, perfect-bound wraps, 128 numbered pages, plus 32 pages of those very engaging vintage ads at the beginning and end (24 at the beginning, 8 at the end), many of those in color and many, in this era, touting wartime manufacturers; 160 pp total. Plenty of both color and black and white photos herein. See summary of illustrations on cover scan. About Near Fine. Light dust at top page edges andr...that's about it. See all scans. Some tendency for several of the interior pages to lightly self-adhere. Otherwise, no notable flaws whatsoever. A high grade example, and as such hard to replace. See all scans. In sealed protection, on premises, ready to ship. Inside are pieces on Cruise on an Escort Carrier; Pocket Carriers; Crete- Sea Kings; Non-Sporting Dogs; Pelican Profiles; Healing Arts in Global War; The Russians. Unusual vintage G.E. "Musaphonic" ad on the back cover. And, as noted, plenty of other vintage ads inside - those being, somehow, always among my favorites offerings from NG. Scarcer issue than many others of the era, particularly in this condition. Ships in a new, sturdy, protective box, of course. LNG6
