Lot of Five Wartime Books Including Bomber Command and The Eighth Army
This lot comprises five wartime and military-themed books and pamphlets. Titles visible on the covers include The First to be Freed, The Abyssinian Campaigns, Bomber Command, The Eighth Army and an illustrated album of flags. The group offers a varied selection of printed material relating to the Second World War and the campaigns in East Africa, with the Bomber Command and Eighth Army titles representing two of the best-known subjects of the period.
Pre-Owned Condition and Collector Interest
The books show the wear expected of publications of this age and handling, including marks, creasing and some edge and spine wear, particularly to The Abyssinian Campaigns. The covers are generally intact and the titles remain legible. No further condition assessment has been made, and buyers should consider the lot as sold in its present state. Printed wartime ephemera of this kind appeals to military history enthusiasts, collectors of Second World War literature and those interested in the Eighth Army and RAF Bomber Command, making it a useful grouping for a bookshelf or a research collection.
