Rare Lockheed 500 Commercial Air Cargo Transport Promotional Book Memerabilia:
$49.99
By was of a background, theLockheed L-500 was a proposed civilian commercial variant of the C-5 Galaxy military transport designed in the late 1960s thoughit was never actually built. It was shopped around as a heavy cargo lift aircraft and was even pitched as a two- deck airliner. Interest from the commercial airline and cargo industries was muted given the fact that the Boeing 747, Douglas DC-10 and Lockheed L-1011 were all being built for both industries.This \"Rare Lockheed 500 Commercial Air Cargo Transport Promotional Book\" is one of a handful of items used by Lockheed Geogia to market the potential of this aircraft. It is 18 pages in length and includes along with the text a number of black & white illustrations, as well as, a performance specification table. Very few original pieces of this marketing campaign survive to this day. Given its rarity and the fact that it is over 55 years old, it is a somewhat unique and certainly interesting piece of aviation memorabilia
