Is there any philanthropist-collector of any of "POPULAR AVIATION", "FLYING" or "The AIRPLANE" magazines from the early 1920's and onwards who might be kindly disposed to turning a good deed for their fellow aviation enthusiasts and researchers by this means:
Firstly, some may know that these magazines are available on "GOOGLE Books" - WOW!! what a fantastic resource they are! However, those who have dipped into this archive will be aware that there are a number of annoying(!) gaps in the 'toothy' smile on the GOOGLE bookshelf, i.e. copies missing!
...... so, my request to those owning the missing copies, would they make available to GOOGLE their precious magazine to allow it to be electro-optically scanned and added to the on-line viewing collection?
Obviously, it will still be your magazine but it would constitute a most welcome and generous act of charity for those of us with a thirst for knowledge.
Thank-You.
