Lancaster booklet help


Peter Roberts

Recommended Posts

I came across a reference, here I think, to a booklet called "A Special Aircraft" or something like that - I think.

 

It was a booklet prepared around a Lancaster, either 'S' Sugar or 'G' George. I found it on ABE at the time, but now cannot find it, nor the reference to it.

 

If anyone can follow what I am talking about, can you please help me with the fog I am in and give me a correct title? I would be most grateful.

 

Thank you

I think this might be what you’re looking for ...

 

’ A very special Lancaster: A history of Lancaster Mk.1 R5868’

 

I found it on Amazon UK.  4 used copies available from GBP3:00 .

 

The Lancaster in question is at the RAF Museum, Hendon ... I was there yesterday with my cousin.  The paperback book is 32 pages, shipping weight 9.1g, published by Pitkin Pictorials for the RAF Museum in 1975.

 

Hope this helps,

 

Jonny

That's it! Thank you Jonny.

 

You have the makings of a great detective, I was sure no-one would work out what I was getting at. :) 

 

Thank you very much,

Glad to be of help.
