1954 London Airport. Developments in the Central Terminal Area
What Our Customers Say...
Description
Folding Plates, Illustrated, Rebound, Very Scarce
A very scarce work.
The original front wrap is bound in.
An interesting report on the developments of the central terminal area at Heathrow in the 1950s. At this time, Heathrow was known as "London Airport", being renamed in 1966.
This report was penned during a period of vast expansion to the airport after the Second World War. Heathrow was founded as a small airfield in 1930, and is now the biggest airport in Britain.
Illustrated with nine double-sided folding plates, and nine plates, seven of which are double-sided.
Fifteen blanks leaves bound to the rear.
Condition
Rebound in a cloth binding. Externally, generally smart, with marks to the boards and spine. Light bumping to the head and tail of the spine and to the extremities.

Institutional stamps to the front wrap, and to most pages, and a label to the verso of the front wrap.
