Number 99 of a hardcover limited edition of 100 copies. 4to; original black cloth, lettered in gilt to upper cover; pictorial onlay to upper cover; pp. 48; illustrated in full colour with reproductions of the paintings, including thumbnail, captioned illustrations of each of the exhibition pictures. Very occasional minor fox spot. Near-fine condition. 'This collection of paintings covers the history of aviation in South Africa from 1917 to about 1976, and at the same time reflects some of the many changes that have taken place within Port Elizabeth and the Eastern Cape, a region important in the history of aviation in the sub-continent. The 154 oil paintings and a number of drawings were published by Struikhof Publishers in 1989 in "A Portrait of Military Aviation in South Africa" by Ron Belling, who was both author and artist. ... The paintings were the result of many years of research, extensive photographic recording, field sketching and flying with the South African Air Force by the artist.' .
