Item description from seller
STUDENT PILOT HANDBOOK HUNT & FAHRINGER 1943 1ST PRINTING FLEXIBLE COVERS. I am pleased to offer a very rare (only one copy found online) vintage book about piloting an airplane. I would have expected to find many but perhaps they were never published in bulk. Please find: Student Pilot Handbook by Jack Hunt & Ray Fahringer (the later also did the illustrations). The small soft cover (flexible covers) book (4 ¼ x 7 inches, 251 pages) was published by Books Inc. of New York and Boston dated March 1943 and the First Printing of the First Edition (so stated). The covers are flexible maroon boards with gilt titles on cover and spine. The book is amply illustrated throughout, on almost every page, with cartoon like drawings, many humorous, on the ins and outs of piloting a plane. Condition: This book is in very good condition. The flexible hard covers show wear and tear from rubbing and bumping and include creases across both covers. The gilt titles are worn too but still legible (please see the photos). Inside a former owner (pilot learner) has left his inked name and training unit. This is the only mark I found in the book and the pages are clean and bright without toning or foxing. Both hinges are intact, and the binding is tight and sound. This book is not ex-library or a remainder.…
