Skip to product information
Scarce wartime aviation technical manual devoted to the tools, materials, procedures, and production methods used in aircraft riveting during World War II.
Published by McGraw-Hill in 1942, Aircraft Riveting by Albert H. Nisita provides extensive period instruction covering rivet identification, aircraft aluminum alloys, drilling and preparing rivet holes, pneumatic equipment, bucking bars, flush and blind riveting, inspection, removal, special procedures, and installation of compressed-air systems. Illustrated throughout with detailed diagrams, technical tables, equipment photographs, and remarkable factory images showing wartime aircraft production.
Featured aircraft include the Curtiss P-40 Warhawk and Bell P-39 Airacobra. The photographs of factory workers, assembly lines, aircraft structures, and original riveting machinery make this especially interesting for collectors of WWII aviation, American industrial history, aircraft maintenance manuals, and wartime manufacturing material.
Original blue cloth-covered hard boards with gilt cover lettering and internal wire binding, allowing the manual to lie flat while in use. Contains approximately 160 numbered pages.
Former Toledo Public Library copy with library labels, stamps, card pocket, identification numbers, and related institutional markings. Covers show rubbing, scratches, discoloration, edge wear, and remnants of library labeling. Pages exhibit general age toning and occasional spotting or handling wear. Internal wire binding remains intact, and the pages shown are secure and readily usable. Please examine all photographs carefully for the exact condition.
