Scale modelers will be interested in The Best of Golden Age Flying Models
Quote:
"This little booklet contains, in reduced size, about one hundred and fifty plans of models that were representative, in size and type, of the most popular models of the 30s. It contains models of WWI planes, light planes, commercial planes, racing planes and military planes. The choice was not haphazard, each model was chosen because of some specific quality or general popularity."

and Scale Models by Wylam
Quote from the original foreword:
"A decade ago the Automobile Age slipped almost imperceptibly into the Air Age. But the transition did not go unnoticed by one of America's most brilliant young draftsmen who quickly turned his talents to airplanes and motors. His singular genius for fine detail and plan-layout immediately stamped his work in this field as outstanding and 'Drawn by Wylam' soon became a widely recognized trademark of excellence in aeronautic draftsmanship. 'Model Airplane News' magazine is proud to have published William Wylam's works for the past ten years. And in response to numerous requests for a single volume to include all these superb drawings, we offer this distinctive collection to all discriminating aeromodelers."

also Flying Scale Models by Ron Moulton.
