1-ALBATROS W4
Windsock Mini Datafile 1 by Peter M Grosz
BY tradition, we always initiate a new range of titles with an Albatros and the W4 fighter floatplane of 1916 was the obvious choice to kick off our MINI DATAFILE series in 1995. Peter M Grosz unravels the fascinating W4 story with rare photos from his unrivalled collection with Ian Stair drawings in two scales, plus detailed colour notes and four profiles on the rear cover. This is our last copy and it's in near perfect condition with only minor cover creases.
NEAR-mint example of the very first title in our popular MINI DATAFILES series published in November 1995 and one of the first to sell out not long after.This concise 16 page monograph [including covers] was written by Peter M Grosz and traces the development and service career of this well-known Albatros fighter floatplane of 1916 with ten rare photos from the author's collection and detailed scale drawings by Ian Stair in 1:72 and 1:48. In addition, this modest monograph also provides colour and markings notes with 'Naval lozenge' patterns and colours to accompany the four rear cover profiles by series editor and publisher Ray Rimell.
