Airships of the Pulp Era

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Airships are a staple of comic books, dime novels, and movie serials of the 1920s and '30s through to the pulp fiction movies of today. Heroes and villains use the craft as bases of operation and combat vehicles, and they are a great setting for a "closed room" mystery. 

Airships of the Pulp Era is a guide to reality and the fantasy of airships in the Interwar period. The history of the various vessels, how they were crewed and flown, and the politics around them are covered. Rules for using airships in the Ubiquity Role Playing System, which powers games like Hollow Earth Expedition are included.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
