“Vintage Flyers III” is done and available for the 2011 Christmas season.

Just a quick post to let you folks know that I have completed my new book, and it is ready for shipping.

It features 1015 color pictures of 1047 pre-1956 restored vintage airplanes. 528 pages hardbound all done on a new very high gloss paper stock. There are 695 different piston-powered types covered (144 new types since our last book) from all over the world (20% of these pictures were taken at events and private collections that are in foreign countries). There are 430 air-to-air pictures covering over 300 different types. Over half of the pictures are in flight shots, and 219 of them are large format pictures that measure at least 10 inches in frame size.

Over 60% of the pictures included have never been published before, and they are accompanied by 136.000 words of text. There are photos from thirty US states, six countries, and three continents! There are 87 seaplanes, 156 multi-engine airplanes, 270 biplanes, 331 military marked examples, 363 open cockpit airplanes, and 507 radial powered machines. There are even eight types of tri-motor airplanes. A dozen types are shown on wheels, floats and skis. Airplanes covered span the pioneer, the WWI, the golden age, the WWII, and the classic eras.

The book is an 8.5 x 11 horizontal format and each copy is $89.95 plus $5.00 postage and handling (to U.S. customers). California residents will need to include 8% sales tax as well. To get more information or get a copy, you can see my listing on E-bay, send a check (or V/MC/Dis number and expiration date) and mailing address to Prewar Publications P.O. Box 660 Vineburg, California 95487 or just call me at (707) 939-8913 and I will process a credit card order for you and send it out immediately.

Thanks for your interest,

Eric Presten.

Moderators, if this is in the wrong location, please place it where you would like to have it.

Highly recommend this book. Eric gave my wife and I a preview back in July and it is another MUST have for the vintage aircraft enthusiast!

Another fine published photo collection, Eric!

A last chance note.

If you want a copy of “Vintage Flyers III” delivered (to you or someone else as a gift) by Christmas, you should order it by 3:00 PM Monday (the 12th). I will be making the last mailing that I am sure will arrive by the big day late in the afternoon.

Thank you to those of you who have already ordered,

Eric P.
