About this Item

Book #6 in the 20-book YA series penned by under the same pseudonym as the author of the Hardy Boys, featuring intrepid young aviator, Ted Scott. The actual principal author, John W. Duffield, who also contributed to the Don Sturdy and Bomba the Jungle Boy series, was a "conscientious student of aeronautics." Orig. published in 1928, this is a slightly later printing of that FIRST EDITION, listing to Self & to HB#6 in front matter, but to TS#12 in rear.

Minor rubbing to extremities, slight corner bumping, light soil; spine is quite faded, with some bleached spots & fraying. Former owner's name stamps with 1931 date to ffep;, else unmarked. NO DJ.
