19192358London: printed and published by the Morgan Reeve Company Goldsmith Street 1919. Four issues of the magazine each measuring 250 x 187 mm. all with the original printed colour wrappers. Condition variable. Basically two issues thumbed and well-read one with covers detached; the other two issues are well-preserved. A scarce and desirable relic of the Royal Air Force in the First World War being the light-hearted review magazine of the Spittlegate training depot. These four issues follow the signing of the Armistice on November 11 1918 and the overall purpose of the publication was to foster camaraderie and good relations between men from across the Commonwealth and a good measure of American airmen too. As such the intended audience lists English Scots Welsh Irish Canadians New Zealanders South Africans and Yankees. </p> <p>Undeniably English in tone yet imbued with the risqué and cavalier mood following the end of a grim and depressing war "Dope" comprises sketches caricatures theatrical reviews potted biographies of officers and other identities contributions by the Padre and more. Of special interest are the football results and write-ups including Spittlegate versus 876 Company A.S.C. and Spittlegate versus Cranwell. Unsurprisingly the advertisements are pitched to airmen and include uniforms flying apparel and accoutrements. printed and published by the Morgan Reeve Company, Goldsmith Street unknown
