With diagrams illustrations text illustrations throughout. Flexible printed black vinyl white & red lettering black plastic-comb binding as issued yapp fore-edges minor edgewear rubbing still VG copy w/ date stamp & limitation on Table of Contents page. First edition “Advance Copy†# 7 of 10 of this exceedingly scarce promotional sales proposal for the Boeing 738 Military Transport Aircraft based on the Boeing 707 and early precursor to what would later become the Boeing 737 whereas the Model 735 would have been a civilian 707-based freighter to compete with the Douglas DC-8. These were developed by the Boeing Transport Division in light of the company’s in-house 1958-1961 reports that air operations would sharply expand by 1965 and grossly under-predicted the company’s production of 707 and 727 aircraft. By reconfiguring wing length combining features from both the Boeing 707 and the C-135 Boeing engineers in this proposal closely foreshadowed the developments which led to the Boeing 737. The Boeing 737 would later go onto become the highest selling commercial aircraft with current backlogs of later generations now above 4200 aircraft on order.

These catalogues were issued in assorted variations with multiples of differing images often targeting specific customers so they were all intended as sales ephemera in process.

1960234801960. Boeing industrial photo archive depicting aircraft manufacturing machining and early jetliner development during the rapid expansion of commercial air travel in the decade after the Boeing 707 transformed passenger aviation. Boeing introduced the 707 into commercial service in 1958 accelerating the replacement of propeller-driven fleets with turbine-powered aircraft capable of faster transcontinental and intercontinental travel while the 737 program launched in 1965 aimed to extend jet transportation onto shorter regional routes previously dominated by piston and turboprop aircraft. The group centers on Boeing's transition from military and long-haul production into high-volume civilian jetliner manufacturing during the years when American airports airlines and aerospace plants expanded around mass passenger aviation. Wichita manufacturing operations appear prominently linking the labor of machinists inspectors welders and assembly crews directly to the emergence of the modern commercial airliner industry.<br /> <br /> Photo archive of 9 silver gelatin and press photographs ranging from approximately 4 x 5 to 8 x 10 inches Wichita Kansas and Everett Washington circa 1960s-1967. Factory floor scenes show Boeing workers machining aircraft components on heavy drill presses welding structural assemblies beneath large tubular support frameworks and inspecting fabricated sections identified in verso notation as work connected to the "747 jet" and "heel beam under the wing." A posed group portrait includes machinists and supervisors standing on a production floor identified in manuscript as "Everett Washington Shop 4420." Boeing press photographs stamped "Photo by The Boeing Company" include an early Boeing 737 in flight the unfinished fuselage on the assembly line beneath a "First 737" sign and rollout preparations outside a Boeing hangar marked with a countdown placard reading "737 first flight 23 days away." Several versos retain Boeing numerical press codes including "P41473" "P40870" and "6A72097" while pencil annotations identify "Boeing Wichita" and internal production references.<br /> <br /> The 737 made its first flight on April 9 1967 entering a commercial aviation market reshaped by Cold War aerospace spending postwar suburbanization and the dramatic increase in passenger air travel during the 1960s. Industrial archives showing both internal aircraft manufacture and public-facing rollout imagery from this transitional period remain far less common than later airline publicity material particularly with direct factory-floor labor content tied to Boeing's Wichita operations. Light edge wear occasional surface creasing and minor fading to several prints; overall in very good condition. unknown
