I bought my copy in 1955.
It was the first serious aviation book I acquired as a schoolboy and I still use it for reference. The dust cover is long gone but I seem to remember it was a Javelin.

Is this an “Observer” type book?
I’ve been given some old (1950s and 60s) books from the Observer and related series. They have very little monetary value but are of interest.

I offered some similar books here a while ago-ones from the between wars period-and no one was interested. 🙁
