Rubbed at the spine, closed tear to the top of the first page. Only two pages are colored. The covers are bright and clean. Wonder why little Ione Fischer never colored the rest. ; Oblong Small 4to 9" - 11" tall; 20 pages View More...
The front cover is chipped at the upper left & lower right corners. Charming little children's book. Text is in French. The story of Hansel & Gretel & the wicked witch. 4 full page colored illustrations plus the colored illustration on the cover. The best being Gretel (Annette) pushing the witch into the oven.

The spine is rubbed at the very edge, and there are some spots of soil on the front cover. Upper right corner shows some bending, but is not creased.

I can't tell if the card covers are original to the book, but they appear to be. A couple of stamps, a barcode, and a bookplate inside the front cover are the extent of the xlib markings. There is a bit of rubbing to the edges of the card covers. The book is not paginated sequentially, but is just over 1/2" thick. Mimeographed on coarse paper. An organizational chart on blueprint paper (dated March 30th, 1926) is in a pocket in the back. Only a few pictures, but gives the new officer detailed information on the construction of dirigibles, biplanes, etc. At the facility. Down to how to sew ... View More...
Light soil to the covers, old crease at the upper right corner. Unfortunately, previous idiot owner stamped his name & silly symbol on the second page (the revision page) , happily not on the title page. You wonder why someone who collects aviation books would do such a stupid, stupid thing. Doesn't really hurt the book much, but it is still really dumb. Ticks me off (can you tell? ). Includes the revision pages in the rear. ; Small 4to 9" - 11" tall; 88+14 pages View More...

About half of the book is written specifications, and half is drawings and photos, most of them folding. Drawings of cars on the Chicago, Metropolitan, cleveland and Toronto lines are used as examples.
