Descripción

4 7/8 X 7 5/8 Inches. Original two volume first printing set of riveting handbooks for WWII fighters! Number 11 and 12 in the series prepared by the Navy Department for incoming machinists. In recognition of the fact that women were increasingly becoming part of the nation's "riveting" force, the Navy Department decided to use photographs and line drawings of female machinists in these manuals. An important set that documents the importance of women in the WWII war effort in America. From "Rosie the Riveter" to "Wendy the Welder", women were increasingly needed by America to fill the shoes of men fighting overseas. Accompanied by the October 1943 issue of "World at War" magazine with the iconic "Rosie the Riveter" cover! Original orange wraps. Light wear to spines and edges.
