help with book

[PAULH]

can any one help with a book i bought at a car boot at the weekend, its
called AIRCRAFT of the FIGHTING POWERS volume 1 - 1940 aircraft
compiled by H. J. COOPER and O. G. THETFORD edited by D. A. RUSSELL
published by THE HARBOROUGH PUBLISHING CO LTD

seems to have been published in 1941 (looking on the net) but not sure ,
then there is the fifth and sixth impressions iv found ( think this might be
the addition they are) but there is nothing like this printed in my book at
all ( is it a first addition iv got ) any help would be grateful about this
book

thanks Paul

thanks sd, looked at so many pages about this book now, but cant get the
right info about first additions and the publishing company. only paid £2
for it, so it looks like i would make a profit on it if was ever going to
sell it. got a new scanner now and found the picks of the P38 that flew over
hear in the 90's, hopefully i can get them scanned this next week and post
for you to see ether in hear or in photos original thanks agen sd
