ref. 163098Jeddah: Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Ministry of Defense and Aviation; Lockheed Aircraft International 1983. The Saudi approach is unique Unrecorded institutionally and commercially this attractive set of albums celebrates Lockheed's role in augmenting Saudi Arabia's air traffic control systems both commercial and military over the period 1972-82. They comprise a total of 80 leaves covering summaries of developments "information flow" diagrams for Kaia Riyadh International Dhahran and Jeddah airports colour maps charts and photographs of facilities operatives and aircraft. Writing in Arabian Studies in 1976 aviation expert Elda I. Stifani notes: "By virtue of its geographical position and the strategic economic and political interests of both local and worldwide powers the Middle East plays a major role in civil aviation operations The Saudi approach is unique. No other country in the Arabian Peninsula has an equally determined and precise policy of national aviation development" Arabian Studies III p. 36. Interestingly he also notes that "Bahrain handles air traffic for all the UAA United Arabian Airlines Qatar part of Oman of Kuwait and of Saudi Arabia Dhahran". In March 1974 the Saudi airline Saudia ordered two of Lockheed's new TriStar airliners specially fitted with increased wing fuel tankage. By 1978 Saudia had increased its fleet of TriStars to thirteen. Provenance: presented to Clifford G. Fay of Lockheed Saudi Arabia 1980-82 with his name and dates of service on the front covers.

ref. 59227N.p.; photographer unknown ca 1990. Three large-format black-and-white photographic prints 11" x 14"; very mild creasing at edges still Near Fine. Three anonymous but excellent images of a Gulf War-era demonstration probably in Manhattan ca. 1990. The photographer is unidentified but the prints are of professional quality and capture close-up scenes of crowds carrying banners and placards opposing military involvement in the Middle East and directly attacking President George H.W. Bush. One placard calls for Bush's impeachment accusing him of ".creating the Gulf War to Cover Up His High Crimes and Misdemeanors;" another appears to read "Liar Liar We Will Set Your Ass on Fire." Several images suggest a New York likely Manhattan locale: one poster connects the marcher to SUNY Old Westbury on Long Island; several placards bear the imprint of the National Coalition to Stop U.S. Intervention in the Middle East including a New York City phone number. Though the precise date is obviously uncertain the event captured here is plausibly the October 20 1990 nationwide protest against Operation Desert Storm; rallies took place in several cities simultaneously but New York's was by far the largest as some 15000 protesters gathered at Columbus Circle and marched to Times Square. In general opposition to the first Gulf War was rather muted but significant demostrations did take place in October 1990 and January 1991 as well as a less well-attended counter-protest on the day of the Desert Storm victory parade June 8th 1991. unknown
