Heavily Illustrated 1935 Book CHARLES LINDBERGH’S DECORATIONS and TROPHIES

Description: LINDBERGH’S DECORATIONS and TROPHIES Heavily Illustrated 1935 Missouri Historical Society Book This is a very nice, little-used heavily illustrated example of LINDBERGH’S DECORATIONS and TROPHIES as published by the Missouri Historical Society, Jefferson Memorial in St. Louis, MO in 1935. The material was compiled by curator Nettie H. Beauregard and the sale of the book was approved by Col. Lindbergh. The items shown in this 7-¾ x 10-¾ inch, 64 page softcover book are a partial list of gifts to Lindbergh after his historic transatlantic flight on 20-21 May 1927. Aside from personal items worn by Lindy on his flight from the New York to Le Bourget, France pictures show dozens of foreign medals, memorial plaques, lapel pins, gold keys, busts and bronzes, swords, plaster reliefs, crucifixes and rosaries, travel clocks, fancy paperweights and desk sets, china vases, silk scarves, pocket- and wrist watches, fountain pens, pipes, binoculars, dozens of toy replicas of the Spirit of St. Louis, a chest containing a 197 piece sterling silver table setting, books, even a 18 karat gold initialed dresser set and a bottled sand mosaic. Our pictures show the actual 89 year old book that we are offering for sale. It was stored flat and away from light since 1935 and is in superb condition. No fading, no writing, no odor.
