AIRCRAFT PICTORIAL # 5 - P-40 WARHAWK

Bell, Dana

2013, new copy, paper covers, oblong 11 x 8 1/2, glossy page stock, 113 black & white, 13 color photos, as well as 5 line drawings within the covers of this 72 page softbound book.

The newest release in our groundbreaking Aircraft Pictorial series covers the early "long-nosed" versions of the Army Air Corps' P-40 Warhawk. Digging through records at the National Archives and the National Air and Space Museum, author Dana Bell has uncovered the never-before-told story of this significant fighter. This book presents a narrative that refutes much of what has long been accepted as gospel in the P-40's history, revising the narrative on the aircraft's origins and development, and explaining, for the first time in any publication, the significance and development of the mysterious P-40G. As with previous books in the series, Aircraft Pictorial Number 5 also provides extensive detail photos of the long-nosed P-40's systems and many physical modifications. Aircraft Pictorial Number 5 will be required reading for aviation historians, restorers, and modelers.

INTERNATIONAL POSTAGE NOTICE  !

 

 

AS OF MAY 14th, 2007, THE US POSTAL SYSTEM HAS COMPLETELY CHANGED  INTERNATIONAL MAIL RATES - ALL SURFACE MAIL HAS BEEN DROPPED, THERE WILL ONLY BE TWO  CLASSES OF AIR MAIL= PRIORITY  OR FIRST CLASS.

 

Due to increasingly higher postal rates, and the many packages that seem to be lost  or damaged, on International Mail, we now only will ship internationally via E-Bay’s Global shipping program, which goes by courier services.

 

Import duties, taxes, and charges are NOT INCLUDED in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding / buying. These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up. Do not confuse them for additional shipping charges. We do not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts". U.S. and International government regulations prohibit such behavior.

 

 

ON PAPER BACK BOOKS & MAGAZINES, MANY TIMES WE CAN COMBINE SEVERAL BOOKS AND SAVE POSTAGE IN THE US ONLY.

We pack your item extremely carefully so you will receive it in the best condition.

This sometimes causes us to be a day or two late in processing orders if we have a good number of sales as we normally only drive to the Post Office on Monday, Wednesday & Friday. 

 Please be patient- we aim to provide the best service we can. We have been in business 50 years.

 

VINTAGE PAPERBACK BOOKS

 

    Please be aware that the binding glue in vintage paperbacks is likely to be much drier than newer books, and thus more fragile than more modern printings. Paper also can be sometimes somewhat brittle. 

     All vintage paperbacks require proper & careful care in handling & reading or the spine glue will crack !!.

 

 

SHIPPING TIMES

 

WE HAVE NO IDEA HOW FAST THESE NEW RATES WILL ACTUALLY BE, SO PLEASE BE PATIENT. WE ARE EXPERIENCING 2 – 6   WEEKS AS BEFORE DEPENDING ON THE CLASS OF  MAIL USED . 

 

Shipments inside the US are also experiencing massive slowdowns, please be patient. Media Sometimes is taking 1 to 4 weeks with no rhyme or reason as to why.

 

IT WILL TAKE AT LEAST THE TIMES STATED ABOVE.    PLEASE DO NOT START ASKING WHERE IT IS IN A WEEK OR TWO AND ACCUSE ME OF NOT SENDING THE ITEM - SLOW DELIVERY TIMES BY THE POST OFFICE ARE NOT MY FAULT,   PLEASE BE PREPARED TO WAIT THE AVERAGE TIMES I HAVE STATED. 

 

 ( Due to be budget shortfalls and massive job cuts, and projected closing of many distribution centers, that are  being implemented by the US Post Office   - we are already seeing delivery times longer than was seen previously – please be patient )

WE HAVE BEEN IN BUSINESS FOR OVER 50 YEARS & WE KNOW BY BITTER EXPERIENCE JUST HOW SLOW THE MAIL CAN BE. THANK YOU FOR LOOKING . Bob Ruman
