A while back I sent someone who posts here some old Aircraft Books, Aircraft of the Fighting Powers I think they were called, for the life of me I can't recal who I shiped them to now.
I was clearing out some more stuff and I came across What seems to be a book of bound copies of a RAF magazine from the year 1955,The cover and spine are a bit battered, but the spine bares the legend Royal Air Force Flying Revue 1955 , least I think thats what it says.
This book is full of articles about the fast pointy things of that era, and interesting adverts for long defunct British Aviation Companies, and London Taylored Suits for 32/- ect and interesting places for RAF coves to stay in London.
All this stuff will be flung into a skip along with the rest of Drapers treasure such as his lead soldiers,wooden fort and Flash Gordon Ray Gun when he pops his clogs, I would rather they went to a good home.
There are also a few other Aviation books of that era,ie Japanese Aircraft of WW11 by John Stroud, and some others I haven't got round to checking yet, if the same person wants these, drop me a email at.

I will post this on the Nosta;gia thread as well, I don't think that existed at the time I sent those other books off.
