Soft cover. Zustand: Good. Eleven (of 15) issues of the monthly in-house magazine for the RAF's flying boat base at Korangi Creek outside Karachi. Illustrated wraps (except n1 in self-wraps) 14x22cm, with some photos. Printed by New Diamond Press, Karachi. Issues include: 1 (Feb 1944, 32pp); 2 (Mar, 40pp); 3 (Apr, 40pp); 4 (May, 40pp); 6 (July, 40pp); 7 ("Special Birthday Number" Aug, 60pp); 8 (Sep, 40pp); 9 (Oct, 40pp); 10 (Nov, 40pp); 12 ("New Year Number" Jan 1945, 48pp); and 15 ("Farewell Number" Apr, 64pp). Good to very good with creasing, tanning and spotting, and long tear to front of n2. The station was founded in 1923 to provide facilities to arriving RAF and other personnel and handle cargo. It was a logistics base for the aircraft repair depot at Drigh Road, which involved receiving and transferring engines and spare parts, and receiving back serviced equipment which it would then transport to Bombay to support RAF units across the Raj. The Pakistan Air Force took it over in 1949. Although primarily for people on Camp, this magazine was censored for postage to the UK to share with people back home. Editorial staff changed frequently due to "havoc" caused by postings, with Flight Lieutenant Hider named as officer in charge in the final issue. Group Captain JCC Slater also features in a couple of supportive messages, with his portrait in n7, commemorating the birthday of the base itself. Contents include personal accounts, guest writers including the Indian manager of the Korangi YMCA who gives her experiences and views on local Anglo-Indian relations (n9), officer profiles, travel, film notes, sports, etc, with local adverts. The magazine consistently sold out, and it turned a profit which it reinvested in the Camp. It was forced to close due to a shortage of paper in the civilian market on which it relied, though this is questioned in the final editorial - "there seems to be an ample supply for the choice selection of pornographic literature which book wallahs apparently consider to be ideal reading for servicemen". …

Paperback. Zustand: AS IS. AS IS: Lacking the Gold Fields map. 104pp. + frontispiece map (edges repaired), foldout map 'Economic Geologic Map of the Cripple Creek District' and foldout promotional poster of Colorado Springs. B/w in-text photos throughout. 9.25' x 12.25', lacking the original cover, rebound with stab-staples in plain manilla wraps. Extremities quite worn and abraded, title page detached, horizontal tears to the first fourteen and final twelve pages, some repaireed with old tape, edges dampstained. 'El Paso County, Colorado, from the day of its organization, has been renowned for scenery, farming, and stockgrowing', begins the prologue by H.L.J. Warren and Robert Stride. The discovery of gold five years previously, however, transformed the area. 'While the aim has been to narrate this Story of Gold attractively, an effort has also been made to have these pages of value for reference to the general reader, the investor and speculator, by presenting a plain chronicle of facts.' Included in the text are the history of the gold's discovery, descriptions of current mining operations and outlines of companies; a full page map facing the prologue shows railroad and wagonroad ties. The authors are unsympathetic to the famous 1894 miners' strike, and the populist Governor Davis Hanson Waite is referred to as a 'blatherskite and a demagogue'. …
