No FTF this week just another car boot find. This time The Air Ministry Account of Bomber Command's Offensive Against the Axis (September 1939-July 1941). A little holiday reading; next week Mr and Mrs Ace Jet and sons are off to the North West corner of the South for a week of solitude and sand.
Bomber Command
I found a copy of this in the mid 1970s and cannibalised it for collages. Sadly the neither these nor the remaining pages seem to have survived house moves, divorce, and my inability to archive properly in those days, so it was good to see the cover again. Interesting how work produced for theMinistry of Information and other state bodies during and immediately after the war seems to have actually provided greater scope for design innovation and modernist ideas than we see in commercial projects from either immediately pre-war or postwar.
