The boys' book of model aeroplanes : how to build and fly them : with the story of the evolution of the flying machine
A 1912 how-to book by Francis A. Collins, published in London by Eveleigh Nash, teaching boys to build and fly model aeroplanes alongside a history of flight. Halftone photographs show stick-and-fabric models laid on gravel and grass, pale wing panels against dark ground, plus propellers, bracing wires and plate captions set sideways in the margin.
