192917575<p>Underwood and Underwood n.d. 1929 On January 2 1929 Evelyn "Bobbi" Trout 1906 – 2003 set the women's endurance flight record with a time of twelve hours and eleven minutes. The record didn't last a month however before being beaten by Elinor Smith 1911 – 2010 by over an hour. The next month Trout reclaimed the record with a seventeen-hour flight; in April Smith smashed the record with a time of twenty-six hours. Trout and Smith's rivalry led them to collaboration: while participating in the Women's Transcontinental Air Derby in the summer of 1929 they agreed to attempt a month-long endurance flight. The present photo commemorates their first attempt which took place in November of 1929. Though Trout and Smith were able to successfully refuel the plane while in the air three times mechanical issues grounded them after forty-two hours. They set the women's endurance flight record with the time. The photograph shows aviator Bobbi Trout warming up the motor of a Commercial Aircraft Corporation "Sunbeam" plane at the Los Angeles Metropolitan Airport where Trout and Elinor Smith took off on their refueling endurance flight. The typewritten commentary suggests the headline "BOBBIE sic TROUT AND ELEANOR sic SMITH BURY THE HATCHET IN PREPARATION FOR REFUELING ENDURANCE FLIGHT. Photograph 10" x 8" with leaf of typewritten commentary by Underwood and Underwood adhered to verso at bottom edge. Some toning to edges and verso and some wear to the commentary leaf. Very good. Both Trout and Smith had illustrious aviation careers. Trout set an altitude record for light-class aircraft in June of 1929 and set another women's endurance flight record in 1931 by spending over 122 hours in the air with actress Edna Mae Cooper. Alongside Amelia Earhart Phoebe Omlie Louise Thaden and Blanche Noyes Trout co-founded the Ninety-Nines an organization for women pilots. Trout also co-founded founded the Women's Air Reserve with Pancho Barnes.</p> Underwood and Underwood,
193117448<p>Strasburg Virginia: Shenandoah Publishing House 1931 First edition of this history of early aviation. Publisher's pictorial blue cloth stamped in silver. . Octavo. With frontispiece and dozens of illustrations throughout including many full- and half-page photo reproductions Binding is clean and attractive. A remarkably bright and fine copy signed by the author "Jack Stearns Gray" in the very good original dustjacket. In the foreword Jack Stearns Gray 1890 – 1961 writes "My first flight was over a part of the Adirondack Range in 1912; my last flight over Washington D.C. in 1927. The first was made sitting on the wing—the last in a cockpit." Gray was the first Virginia woman aviator to fly from Virginia soil and along with her husband George A. Gray traveled all over the eastern United States as barnstormers in their Wright Model B. Gray knew many of the major aviation pioneers including Amelia Earhart Charles Lindbergh Glenn Curtis and the Wright brothers and she records their stories in the present work. She also discusses her contemporary woman aviators including Elinor Smith Ruth Nichols Ruth Elder Camp Opal Kunz and many others. Gray writes in the foreword: "'Jack' is my nickname. I have borne with it flown with it and now I feel like it. Edith is my real name but on only three rare occasions have I used it" including "when I visited Ethel Roosevelt at the White House in 1908." The present work was also praised by Lieutenant Commander Earle Ovington the first U.S. Air Mail pilot and Congressman R. Walton Moore.</p> Shenandoah Publishing House, hardcover

Shoelace-bound three-colour pictorial card cover a little worn at the extremities with trifling surface loss to silverfish; two leaves a little soiled; expert conservation to small chips and tears to the edges of four leaves; minor signs of age and use including some annotations - see below; overall a very good copy. The first leaf contains a large illustration of a Lockheed P-38 Lightning designed as a fighter but used in a variety of roles including aerial reconnaissance. An inscription in ink on the illustration identifies the pilot as '1st. Lt. Alexander Roberts Dec. 1943 New Guinea'. Written in the margin below the illustration is '960th Photo Recon. Dobodura New Guinea Non. sic 1943 - Feb. 1944 Ie Shima April 1945 P.I. Feb. 44 - Ap. 1945 Honolulu Sept 1945 deact.'.

The dog on the next page is 'Killer'. At the rear Ernie Pyle's grave is identified. <p>'The second phase of the Okinawa Campaign consisted of the objectives of Ie Shima which housed the big airfield of the islands and Motobu Peninsula. With Rear Admiral Lawrence F. Reifsnider USN commanding the attack group the U.S. Army's 77th division landed on April 16 1945. The invading force thought that the Japanese had abandoned the airfield due to aerial photo reconnaissance but they met about 3000 men as they moved towards the center of the island. Not unlike the Battle for Iwo Jima the island had networks of underground tunnels enhanced by Mt. Gosuki but the island was secured on April 21. Famed War Correspondent Ernie Pyle was killed on Ie Shima while covering the occupation. To repair the destruction caused by prior bombing and naval gunfire support U.S. Navy Seabees repaired the airstrips. Of note the island was utilized by the Japanese Surrender delegation in mid-August 1945 as a stop point between Japan and Manila Bay Philippines for negotiations with General Douglas A. McArthur USA' National Museum of the United States Navy online. <p>The illustrations in this rare souvenir cover a wide range of the activities of the 960th in the Pacific theatre during the Second World War. 960th Engineer Aviation Topographic Company paperback
