1. From Wheel-Rut and Slip-Stream [ AVIATRIX POETRY ]. [Phoenix, Arizona or Ridgefield, Connecticut]: [Privately Printed], [1935].
First Edition. Original stiff-wrappers, 31 pages, octavo. An uncommon poetry collection by this Ridgefield, Connecticut native. WorldCat locates three library holdings. A short review in the periodical 'Airwoman' describes the booklet thusly: 'Mary Linda Bradley, Pilot 14781 describes her first lesson, progress, and solo flight'. In her self-published autobiography, The Fifth Decade, Mary describes herself as “the first Ridgefield she-pilot and the third to be licensed in Arizona.” Around 1930, at her part-time residence in Arizona, she had bought an airplane, naming it “Merry Robin.” She traveled extensively, both in her plane and on land, often accompanied by her dog, Arizona Pete. Very Good, lower cover corners nicked. Item #601802
