Harrisburg PA: Army Air Forces Intelligence School 1943. Very good. Quarto unpaginated about 100pp. illustrated with 83 original tipped-in photographs and an envelope containing 13 more loose and unidentified images laid-in. Housed in the original cardstock clasped folder. Many of the pages have a bottom fold which does not fully open without the potential to tear though all of the contents can be read with some effort. Some pages a touch foxed and a few prints are loosened from their pages and laid-in in the right place. Overall in very good condition. A well-organized and illustrated military textbook for a wartime class on aircraft identification which was probably taught in many places but organized at the US Army Air Force base in Harrisburg. An introductory sheet in perfect bureaucratic fashion placed near the end of this textbook states: "The course in Aircraft Identification consists of ten hours spaced over a period of six weeks." It goes on to list a series of 42 aircraft--American German Italian French and Japanese--which will be easily identified by all successful students by the end of the course. <br /> <br /> The first few dozen pages consist of detailed folding charts with data on dimensions payloads etc. Another section of about 12pp. gives a background on various best practices when trying to identify aircraft as well as some of the principles behind the course. <br /> <br /> The course utilized the "WEFT" system wings engine fuselage tail to help individuals soldiers intelligence agents etc. identify planes in the field from various angles at different heights and in certain contexts. Most of the pages dedicated to individual planes contain two photographs from different angles and with different shading trying to mimic real battlefield conditions under which someone might try to identify an aircraft.<br /> <br /> An unusually engaging wartime military textbook appealing to photography aviation and military collectors alike. Not located in OCLC thus notably absent in the holdings of the Army War College Library which retains most technical manuals and course books. Army Air Forces Intelligence School unknown

Command and General Staff School unknown
Concord NC: Snyder Ptg. Co. 1933. First Edition. Staplebound. Near fine. 60pp. illustrated. A crisp clean copy near fine in the publisher's stapled wraps. Very faint flattneed vertical crease throughout. Contents clean and bright. A curious volume of local NC history apparently produced with some adult supervision by a sixth-grade class in Concord NC then a rural area and now part of the greater Charlotte metropolis. Strikingly there is a reverent photograph of a placard monument honoring the Ku Klux Klan's activities during Reconstruction alongside less controversial portraits of notable city fathers and historical events. The book is dedicated to the "Cabarrus Black Boys." This was a group of white men who in 1771 raided a British military storage house disguised as either African-Americans or Native Americans as part of the wiser "Regulator Movement" of rural North Carolinians against colonial government taxes and other policies preceding the American Revolution by several years and certianly anticipating it. The pamphlet is rare in commerce; we haven't found a single copy offered at auction in the past half century. The dozen or so copies in worldwide libraries are all--but one--in North Carolina. Not in Thornton. (Snyder Ptg. Co.) unknown
Cleveland: self-published 1920. Staplebound. Fine. Octavo 64pp. illustrated. A fine copy in the publisher's stapled wraps. A profusely illustrated promotional catalogue for this driving school in Cleveland which claimed to be the oldest of its kind in the United States. Packed with testimonials descriptions of classes and images from photographs this volume shows off the institution's many benefits. Laid in are several ephemeral items related to the school including a flyer advertising free airplane rides for students of the school and a sign-up form and unused envelope for would-be students. A small handful of similar catalogues are held by local institutions per OCLC but this one with "18th year" at the beginning of the title appears to be unlocated. A great piece of automotive history dating from the era when Cleveland rivaled Detroit in the automotive manufacturing space. (self-published) unknown
Cleveland: Interstate School of Commerce 1925. Folded brochure. Very good . One folded brochure which unfolds to the size of a poster about 3.75" x 9" folded; 15" x 27" unfolded. In very good or better condition with old folds and trivial foxing at the fore-edge of the front wrap. Fantastic ephemeral document which promotes the Interstate School of Commerce a kind of private vocational school. When fully unfolded a collage of more than 100 recent graduates appears superimposed on the buildig that houses the school. Most interestingly the school is co-educational and seems to make very little distinction between its male and female students. At the first stage of unfolding the following is printed: "The Field of Woman's Endeavor is an Ever Widening One." This brochure was meant to be mailed although this example never was. There are no separate listings for this document in OCLC and we presume it to be scarce. Interstate School of Commerce unknown
