Soft cover. Condition: Fair. Softcover. Single signature folded and sewn without any front covers. Plain gray rear cover still in place. First page is the title. Title page dated only 1801. 16 pages in heavy German font. Frontispiece plate missing. 1901 is the only printed date, but I suspect that is the c1903 reprint because the paper quality is wood-pulp poor. Faded towards yellow and brittle. Measures 7.25 x 9 inches. Please email with questions or to request photos.

This volume is part of a large collection of Aviation and Ballooning books, a catalogue of which is available upon request. Most of the volumes have a small pencil notation on the first blank page - the letters KB and a number. Many have Evelyn Kendall s signature as well.…
