192pp, index, fully illustrated, much in colour. Black boards, a new copy in dustwrapper. This beautifully illustrated book brings together for the first time the myriad artworks used by aviation organisations, flying schools and manufacturers to promote their products over the past century. Though simple in style and produced In black and white at the onset of flying in this country, some of the nation's top artists were soon commissioned to provide more sophisticated advertisements that were visually striking and highly innovative. This book traces the development of this art form from its pre-First World War beginning up to the present day and provides a nostalgic look back across the twentieth century.
