Two volume British Flight, Royal Air Force and World War Two commemorative covers, often 50th anniversary. The first volume is mostly 1970's covers, with a range of cachets, cancels and signatures. About 25% are non-British items. The second volume contains 66 signed covers (and here are a few loose pages with more) from British WWII operations including covers signed by members of the SAS, special operations in Normandy, a few related to Violette Szabo (GC) and POW escapees, Battle of Britain, as well as Crete, Malta and the Warsaw uprising. Often produced in very limited quantity. Total 198 covers. Huge initial cost. Estimate =
