Signatures were apparently signed at an event where all pilots were in attendance; likely at an air show. All have signed truncated versions of their signatures; though all are personally signed in ballpoint pen.

Features the famed McDonnell Douglas F-4E Phantom II aircraft as used throughout that era.

Brochure measures 3.5" x 8.5"; with six full color double-sided panels.

Originally obtained for a PGA golf pro and maintained in the family estate for the past half-century.

Fair condition with several pin holes (likely from thumbtacks that a young person in the home may have used to display the brochure on a bulletin board in their room). Some separation noted at panel folds; as well as approx 1" tear at top of panel near Kirk Brimmer photo.

Still, hard to find in any condition and this one is offered at a very competitive price.
