More Information
Where the preceding two books of this pioneer series focused on the World War I German aviators featured on Sanke postcards, this final volume examines additional postcard presentations of First World War German airmen as published by Liersch, NPG, Hoffmann, Rothenberg & other more obscure companies. Once again, the author looks in detail at where, why & by whom the photographs were taken as well as why & when they were published in postcard form. An extensive number of related photographs are also included, many of them rarely if ever seen by the modern public. This volume ? & indeed the entire set ? provides a treasure trove of biographical information, historical data & photographic images that makes it a ?must-have? for all World War I aviation enthusiasts.
