Description: THE AIRPLANE ENGINE by Lionel Marks Heavily Illustrated 1922 First Edition Fourth Impression This is a 1922 First Edition Fourth Impression of THE AIRPLANE ENGINE by Harvard Professor of Mechanical Engineering Lionel Simeon Marks as published by McGraw-Hill Book Company of New York and London. This 6-¼ x 9-¼ inch, 454-page maroon hardcover book offers invaluable insights into the early days of airplane design, airplane engines and mechanics and is heavily illustrated with tables, detailed line drawings, charts and figures. Our photos show the actual 100+ year old hardcover book that we are offering for sale - NO stock photos. It is NOT a modern softcover reprint of THE AIRPLANE ENGINE! A previous owner wrote his name on the front flyleaf as well as pencil notes on the flyleaf in the back and inside the back cover. While the covers show wear, the spine is tight and the heavily illustrated antique book has no odor. Have a look at other collectible aviation books in our eBay store!

DELIVERY: we photograph every parcel we ship by USPS or by the public carrier specified by the buyer. We e-mail that photo and any applicable tracking number to the buyer as proof of mailing or shipping. Delivery responsibility is then in the hands of the USPS or of any other public carrier selected by the buyer, and does not involve Rapidapolis in any way. Communications about, and responsibility for the delivery to the buyer must be between the buyer and the public carrier, and can not include Rapidapolis on eBay. RETURNS: because of eBay’s approach to returns nowadays we no longer represent anything as being suitable for use for any specific purpose.

What you see is what we have photographed and what we will ship.
