    Description

    I have this issue from Air News magazine dated June 1942. Air News was a monthly publication that featured articles on aviation and World War 2.
    The cover shows a Ryan PT Primary Trainer aircraft which was a
    Ryan ST model  converted by the military for training purposes. Articles in this issue:  Hitler's Secret Threat, Money Fighters, Test Pilots, France joins the axis, Victory through Air Power and many more.
    Features  many recruitment ads for young men wishing to enter the aviation field after the war.
    A good look back at aviation during World War 2.
    Magazine is in good shape for its age but as shown some storage wear on front and back cover and around the edges. Also back page was folded at one time. Has all its 42 pages and measures  13 1/2" x 10 1/2". A great historical reading and nice photos of military planes.
    I have many of these magazines. Let me know if there is one issue in particular you are looking for.
    Will ship in 1 business day with a cardboard backer.
