WAR
AIR ACE PICTURE LIBRARY: ACES HIGH
When War Picture Library was launched in 1958 it quickly became apparent that
many of the most popular stories with readers featured the adventures of the
warriors of the air, pilots who soared and swooped through the sky, cannons and
machine guns blazing. The flyers were seen as the glamour boys of the second
World War, handling the most sophisticated and technically advanced combat
machines ever invented and there was almost limitless scope to develop stories
based around their exploits. The machines that they flew - fighters such as
Spitfires, Hurricanes, Messerschmitts, Mustangs and Zeros were lovingly
recreated by the finest artists, in the brand new Air Ace Picture Library in
1960. Those images are reproduced here 25 per cent larger than in their original
published form, pulling you into close formation in the thick of the action. The
ten stories in Aces High take you from the flak-blasted night sky over Germany
to the sweltering heat of the tropics, twisting and turning like a Typhoon with
a Focke Wolf in its sights! (9781853757037)

AD BOY: VINTAGE ADVERTISING WITH CHARACTER
The post-war economic boom launched a generation of charming, cheeky and
relentlessly cheerful critters and characters that found their way into our
homes - and our hearts - in print, on television, and on packaging. Some took
detours that reflected the times (Elsie the Cow was sent into outer space in
1958). Some were fashion victims who survived (remember hippy Hush Puppies,
circa 1969?). And some are no longer with us (the Frito Bandito was finally
brought to justice in 1971). These endearingly offbeat characters are as fresh
and entertaining today as they were creatively inspired in decades past. Take a
stroll down memory lane with a book that celebrates the quirky creatively of
years gone by. (9781580089845)

Robin is taken to Nottingham Castle by Gisborne. But Tuck, convinced that Robin
is not to blame, attempts a daring rescue mission to clear the outlaw’s name and
convince him to take up his bow once more. For how else will free men rally to
