I have discovered a book previously owned by Harding Lawrence, former
president and CEO of Braniff airlines. It is Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich. It was given to Harding Lawrence by a man named John Force. It was inscribed to him on October 20, 1947 and there is a letter to him from Force stating that he thinks the book is excellent and that all traffic men should read it, and that he hopes that Harding gets rich. The letter, interestingly, is written on the back of a bill of sale for an aircraft. I have scans of the book and the inscription and the letter. I placed the book for sale on eBay before I knew who Harding Lawrence was. There are still several days left to the auction, however, and I wanted to give anyone interested in Braniff history in particular or airline history in general a chance to bid. I have been selling these books that I find at estate sales to make a little extra money for my family, but I also have a strong interest in their preservation. The bidding is still low and I think that anyone interested could probably get this item for a good price. Thank you for your attention. Jennifer Claerr |
