The 1940 edition by Books Inc is a reprint and, as you mention, relatively easy to find.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18350515426529446805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157530669780468545.post-3220586044735909162011-03-27T10:10:29.121-05:002011-03-27T10:10:29.121-05:00This is where I mention the Penny Parker books.

All of the texts are free on Project Gutenberg. Someone took the texts, downloaded them, and now has books for sale. Furthermore, my scans were stolen and placed on Project Gutenberg, so my images have been placed on many of the books without my permission. <br /><br />These are not any sort of official edition. The books are public domain, so anyone can print them in a cheap softcover edition.Jennifer Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10405593758228423001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157530669780468545.post-77603646475817685222011-03-27T02:03:20.773-05:002011-03-27T02:03:20.773-05:00Jennifer,

If so, I've never seen any.<br /><br />If not, exactly what did you mean? The later reprints by Cupples And Leon?<br />Thanks,<br />RichardCoffeegulperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16715120927276603682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157530669780468545.post-26769710836260917352010-08-27T18:29:29.306-05:002010-08-27T18:29:29.306-05:00I bought this book about a year ago, and took it a...I bought this book about a year ago, and took it along to read on a short business trip last week. I always find it fun to read about the early days of aviation - a good, stand-alone story.Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09904773672230899031noreply@blogger.com
