Large format paperback, staple bound in white pictorial covers. 36 pages plus covers. Illustrated with 100 rare archive black and white photographs; 4 pages of detailed 1:48 and 1:72 scale drawings by Ian R.

A profusely illustrated Datafile of the classic two-seater single-engine reconnaissance biplane. “The Rumpler C.I enjoyed one of the longest wartime careers of any German C.class machine, lasting from late 1915 right up to the Armistice and beyond when many of them served with other nations’ emergent air arms.” [Publisher’s blurb]. An excellent resource for the scale-modeler and airplane enthusiast. No previous ownership marks. A clean, fresh and unmarked copy, near like new with just a touch of toning to fore-edges. Near fine.
