[AVIATION]. EARHART, Amelia (1897-1937). The Fun of It: Random Records of My Own Flying. New York: Brewer, Warren & Putnam, 1932. 

8vo. With original Silvertone phonograph recording in sealed rear pocket, and with inserted leaf preceding the title-page as issued; photographic plates. Original pink cloth (some fading and minor staining).

FIRST EDITION.  The inserted leaf at the front discusses the author's christening of the Essex Terraplane automobile on 21 July 1932, and the recording captures Earhart's London radio broadcast of May 22, 1932. Earhart discusses her path to becoming a pilot and shares a bibliography of the writings of other female aviators.
