    Description

    NOTE: THE COLORED TEXT SEEN ON THESE PHOTOS IS NOT ACTUALLY ON WHAT YOU ARE BUYING.
    From Jane's All the World's Planes, 1940 edition, here is an ad for Perspex, a product only commercially introduced in 1933.  It was pretty new at the time of the 2nd world war and revolutionized aircraft design as they no longer had to stick to assemblies of flat glass to make cockpits.  Simmonds aero controls also feature on the reverse, showing the variety of their offerings.
    This ad was carefully sliced out of the book and measures 7 1/2" wide by 12 1/2" tall.  It will be mailed flat in a manila envelope.  I can ship many of these ads for the one base shipping rate but you must wait for me to send you and invoice otherwise eBay just keeps stacking the shipping fees on.
    Thanks for looking in at one of my auctions and best of luck.
