CONVAIR ADVANCED DESIGNS

by Robert E. Bradley

Published by Speciality Press. 1st. 2010

Fine condition in a slightly better than very good dustwrapper. Secret Projects from San Diego 1923-1962. Consolidated Vultee, which later became Convair, built some of the world's best flying boats in the 1930s, and the world's best bombers during World War II. Large format. Glazed pictorial boards. B/w photos, illustrations & drawings.

A nice, clean copy. Pictorial dustwrapper is lightly faded to spine and slightly grubby to rear.
