Bargain of the year (updated)


Please ignore my post from earlier this week.....

On Friday I picked up this classic, a book I have been searching for for some time and this one is in near perfect condition (unlike some I have seen) bought from a charity book clearance outlet in Malvern, Worcestershire. And the reason I'm moving this to the top of my list of  'bargains of  the year 2025' is because they were only asking 75p.

Yes just 75p. I was so embarrassed that I gave £3.00 which was all the loose change I had with me.

For anyone interested in aircraft of the Great War this is a must-have and now at long last I have my own copy - a book I will cherish.

Jane's Fighting Aircraft of World War 1, originally published in 1919, then 1990 and again reprinted in 1992. A huge studio edition with just a small tear to the dust cover and a couple of pricing stickers on the rear. A great charity shop find, not quite my best ever, but close.
