Ian Allan Aircraft Annual Query

[Matt Skrossa]

I expect we've all got or had at least one of the excellent Ian Allan published Aircraft Annuals (Aircraft Annual 1977 etc). I've got a collection of these ranging from 1949-1988 but does anyone know if they were published before or after these dates?? I tried Ian Allan direct but didn't get a response. Thanks in advance.

Ian Allan set up his publishing company in 1945, concentrating initially on railways, so it could be that 1949 was the first issue of the Aircraft Annual. After 1988, I'm afraid I don't know.

The last one I have is 1988, and I seem to remember I was unable to buy it after that.

I have them all from 1968-1988!
