Oh my!!! a box of WWI books at a garage sale!

Just returned from Boulder where a great fellow modeler and friend Mr. Paul Dart found for me a box of WWI books and gifted them to me. Mostly 1960's -70's stuff but oh my! WOW! Will list them later for anyone looking for the odd book.

Awesome find, and a good friend. :D

Congrats!

Greetings all and thanks Lufbery;
Herein lays the list I have forged from the contents of said box. Originally the property of L.B.Martin of the Ball Corp. you will see many WWI aviation topics. If you find one that catches your fancy let me know I'm always open for a trade ( 1/48 scale Eduard, DML, Roden, Special Hobby or Hi-Tech.)

Wot's that? look ere mates don't crowd round the barrow there's plenty for all. Ace of Aces, Flying in Flanders and No Parachute: A Fighter Pilot in World War I are in the post and ave been nicked off the above list. Ginger, old Bean ow bout a nice Red Baron book to nod off to sleep with?

Only way that'd happen is if it fell off the bookshelf and landed on me 'ead! :wacko:
