Contact seller4-star sellerSmall octavo, tan illus. cloth (hardcover), 71 pp. Near-Fine, with light foxing (age darkened spotting) and bookplate; in a Very Good+, brightly illustrated dust jacket with a bit of edgewear. From dust jacket: RAFF and Anthony Armstrong have delighted such a host of readers with their previous records of Nice Types to be met wi…th in the Royal Air Force, that the demand for a third volume on similar lines was inevitable. At the end of the war most of the Air Force Nice Types were scattered to the four winds of Civvy Street. Fortunately, however, our popular collaborators occasionally came face-to-face with erstwhile Nice Types, from the Station Commander down to the humble but inimitable A.C. 2 Plonk, with the result that once again these delightful personalities have become the subjects of Anthony Armstrong's engaging humour and are pictured by Raff with characteristic wit and insight. Humor, Illustrated, Comics, Military History, Military Culture, Royal Air Force, World War II, WWII. yslic.
