Help to find a reference - A request from Bill Flook
Can anyone help me please? I discovered in a copy of IPMS UK Magazine of June 1973. In this magazine, Robert C (Bob) Jones wrote an article. Who was then the President of I.P.M.S. UK and the magazine's editor. This article is on the Grumman Avenger in Royal Navy Service 1943 - 1945. At the end of Bob Jones's article, he gives furthers references. One of the references that he gives is "FLIGHT COLOUR print No. 48 shows two TBF - 1B "working up" excellent for detail of forward-firing m/g trough, etc."

Please find attached the scan of the page from The IPMS UK Magazine of June 1973. This gives the references for the Avenger: (Both R.N. / U.S. Variants etc.). Can anyone give me more information on this reference? I do hope that someone can give me some advice on where to search for a copy of Flight Colour print No. 48.
