POTGIETER, Herman - More than Game *

Book and wrapper in about perfect condition.

Reviewed By: Phil Cater

Alongside Ron Bellings A Potrait of Military Aviation in South Africa,  Herman Potgieter's masterwork photographic study of the contemporary SAAF counts for me as not just another modellers reference book.  It's more than that, it's inspirational, this was the book which got me started on my 'modeling the entire SAAF' project.  The photos range from stunning detail such as the Cheetah D closeup on the flypage - great stuff for the detail - to more artistic shots of dramatic lightning bolts above a Turbo Dak, or a Cheetah D silhouetted against a towering cumulus. Perhaps also in this category of 'artistic' photo is a special treat  - the 50 Harvards formation retirement flypast.  With such shots, More Than Game becomes elevated from a very useful reference work, to more of a classy 'coffee table' book, but whatever you do, don't spill your drink on this one.... 

*N.B.*  If you buy more than one book from me you only pay R 6 postage each on each additional book instead of R 24  – see what else I have to offer, it might be worth your while.
