Ajouter au panierHardcover. Etat : Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. SKYWARD COMMANDER RICHARD E. BYRD 1928 1ST EDITION/1ST PRINTING VERY GOOD. I feel privileged to be able to offer this iconic book of bravery and heroism, especially in the First Edition/First Printing. Please find: Skyward, by Commander Richard E. Byrd, U.S. Navy (Retired). Th…e subtitle reads: Man s mastery of the air as shown by the brilliant flights of America s leading air explorer. His life, his thrilling adventures, his North Pole and Trans-Atlantic flights, together with his plans for conquering the Antarctic by air. This medium-sized hard cover book (6 x 8 ¾ inches, 359 pages) was published by G. P. Putnam s Sons of New York, dated 1928. There is a note on the copyright page which says: This copy is from the first printing of Skyward and will be the only printing to contain the photogravure frontispiece portrait of the author. The book is bound in sky blue cloth covers with bold gilt titles on the cover and spine. The book is well illustrated with 48 b&w photographs, typically one to a page on glossy paper and each with its explanatory caption. Condition: This book is in very good condition. The hard covers are bright and very presentable, particularly the gilt titles but there has been some minor rubbing to the edges and light bumping to the corners and spine tips. Inside, the book is unmarked except for a neat bookplate of a former owner on the front endpaper. The interior pages and plates are clean and bright throughout, without toning and certainly no foxing. Both hinges are intact, and the binding is tight and sound. This book is not ex-library or a remainder.

Painting features whimsical penguin atop a South "pole" and oversized depiction above of Byrd smoking corn-cob, in prop plane flight with the words: "Fly High with a Byrd Special". S…igned and inscribed by Admiral Byrd: "Good work Allan and Alice, warm regards, Dick Byrd." The poster is hand drawn and painted by Allan Stein and his wife Alice Stein measuring 16" x 20" and mounted on Bainbridge board stock. Also, nine Allan Stein original photographs (with two additional mounted duplicates) including photo of 1945 illustration of a kamikaze Zero attacking a U. S. Hornet war ship, two from 1950 in the Bering sea near Alaska. An extra-wide original of bomb test at Bikini Atoll, et al.

At back side of boards, many have additional description and details including Stein's address stamps from San Diego, Detroit, Antarctica while at Little America, couple with description of camera, film, settings, etc. Most have hangers ready for display. Three photographs are from Admiral Byrd's Operation Highjump by Commander Stein, who was an appointed Navy photographer for the unusual expedition. "South Polar Plateau Antartica 1946-47" full-size of board and with stamp at back: "Lt. Allan E. Stein, Motion Picture Div. N.P.C. N.A.S. Anacostia, D.C."

This is a mounted photograph of his illustration. On same date of March 19, 1945, US Navy aircraft attacked Japanese warships at Kure. Kure-shi is a port and major shipbuilding city situated in Hiroshima Prefecture. Printed by Stein at back: "I was in first line of TBM's ready for a strike at Kure Koe, Japan when this Jap plane dove in on us. Truely, 'God was the pilot of our ship.'" Stamp for Anacostia Motion Picture Div. at back. During the Pacific War, Kure acted as the Imperial Japanese Navy's single-largest naval base and arsenal. Most of the city's industry and workforce were employed in the service of the naval installations, munitions factories and associated support functions. In the later stages of the conflict Kure came under sustained aerial bombardment culminating in the Bombing of Kure in June and July 1945. Also, interestingly, this as several others appear to have re-purposed can opener tab as the adhered wall hanger. Finally, a majestic mounted photo of Allan Stein's father at the Mount Vernon resting memorial of George Washington. Titled "Silent Tribute" by Stein with note: "Dad at Mt. Vernon".
