Synopsis
The Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum draws more visitors than any other museum in the world--90,000 a day in the summertime--and the exhibit of air travel posters featured in this unique companion volume combines arresting, colorful art, rare archival material, and a unique approach to aeronautical history. The posters--most of them never before published--feature barnstormers, gliders, and flying boats, the earliest passenger flights, the first luxury-liners, mail carriers, jets, and much more. Spanning a century and a half, they combine the popular art and the commerce of their eras, with both explored in the entertaining, informative text by a longstanding National Air and Space Museum curator. From 19th-century circus impresarios offering rides in gaudy hot-air balloons to the sleek 21st-century airliners, the posters provide a fascinating illustrated history of flight as it evolved from an exotic realm inhabited only by visionaries and daredevils into our modern world of speedy jets and frequent flyers--no longer extraordinary, perhaps, but still echoing with the exhilarating thrill and glamorous excitement captured here. Countless visitors to the museum's traveling poster exhibition and the permanent exhibition "America by Air" will delight in the gorgeous and wonderful graphics collected in this appealing, affordable book--and so will aviation buffs, armchair travelers, and poster connoisseurs everywhere., The posters--most of them never before published--feature barnstormers, gliders, and flying boats; the earliest passenger flights, the first luxury-liners, mail carriers, jets, and much more.

- e***6 (721)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaExcellent five star seller...best of the best. Very high quality packing, prompt shipping. Seller's product descriptions and photos can be relied on to be accurate and with full disclosure. Prices are reasonable and compare favorably with others offering similar products. The difference is the service. Buyer continues to be pleased...just purchased two long-out-of-print but new never opened books about railroad structure modeling. Seller promptly refunds overpayment of ship cost. Another plus!
- 8***r (1797)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaI purchased a group of three new books from Golden Age Books. The books received were new as shown and described in the listing. The books looked perfect. They were packaged very well and arrived undamaged. The seller combined shipping and issued a refund for the excess charges. I will continue to purchase from this seller. This was a problem free transaction.
- e***n (797)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaThis book, one of three purchased from Golden Age Books, was accurately described, very carefully packed and promptly shipped. Shipped with the second book as Combined Shipping, GAB partially refunded their shipping fee. This was unsolicited and greatly appreciated. A great transaction that earns a 5-STAR rating. Thanks!
