Booklet Guidance For This Listing:
[1] Original, classic (pink) issues of Profile Aircraft (sized 9" x 7") published in 1960s
[2] Larger, pink editions (sized approx. 10" x 7.5") published in the early 1970s, produced to comport in size to the then-newly introduced series of booklets, #205 - #262.
[3] Larger blue editions (sized approx. 10" x 7.5", published in 1980s) numbered below #205 are revisions to the original, classic publication. From my examination, content - particularly graphics & photos - are unchanged from the original editions.
