Sobre este item
London: Heath Ganton, Limited [1920]. Large 8vo. Scarce, and signed by the author. Blue cloth spine over brown boards with colour illustrated WRAF medallion of WRAF member to front board, in original glassine cover. Glassine is torn but still together at the top of the spine, and slightly worn around the edges. Slight rubbing to spine ends, but otherwise externally clean and bright. Yellowed and spotted endpapers, otherwise internally clean. Colour frontispiece signed by Gertrude A. George, and 30 full-page illustrations from the author's charcoal drawings in black & white. A scarce work, especially in glassine. The WRAF was formed in 1918 after concerns that the merger of the RFC and RNAS to form the RAF would lead to the loss of a specialized female workforce. When the WRAF closed in 1920, the number of women enlisted had reached 32,000. . Near Fine. Cloth Spine. First Edition. 1920.
