First edition of this exceedingly scarce book of paper models designed and issued by Wallis Rigby just before the Pearl Harbor attack during World War II. Wallis Rigby was a pioneering model designer and Englishman who moved his company to the U.S. in the late 1930s. He pioneered tab-and-slot construction, and his realistic paper models were very popular during World War II. The wartime demand for toys had to be met with non-strategic materials, and paper models filled the void. His models were published as individual books, and boxed sets, and this version was his most elaborate containing models for World War II Douglas Bombers, Bell P-39 Airacobra fighter, Curtiss P40 fighter plane, the Cunard ocean liner Queen Elizabeth, a destroyer, torpedo boat, the HMS Victory, as well as tanks, armored cars, as well as a Pennsylvania Railroad GG1 electric locomotive.
