The end of a long search

Wed Feb 09, 2005 9:24 pm

Many years ago, when I was still living in Guatemala, I saw in an aviation catalog, a book titled "When Hollywood Ruled the Skies" and put it up on my list of books to get . . .


Well, I am in St. Louis, MO and went to a military surplus store.

The owner had a great copy of this book, and the price was way all right! END OF SEARCH!

Now for you guys, who are interested in aviation books, this guy says he just bought a 250 book collection from a retired Boeing engineer, and this is where my book comes from. He has besides these books, a lot of military and aviation books, manuals, etc.

So if y'all are interested, I could with Scott's permission, post the guy's business information for y'all to see.

Saludos,
