I also picked this book up in Blackburn yesterday for £2.25.
Hard backed first edition from 2007 titled "Mosquito to Berlin" signed by co Authors Peter Bodle FRAeS and Bertie Boulter DFC. Now when I looked at this I could clearl make out the bottom sig in Black Biro but was unsure of the top sig, Just looked like scribble to me and in Blue Biro so Have done a bit of research last night and managed to fid an address and E-mail address for Author Peter Bodle so I sent him an E-mail with a couple of photo's attached asking weather it was his signature on the page..This mornin he replied.......
Hi Alex,
Thanks for making contact.
Indeed I can confirm that that is my signature.
A pretty rare copy as Bertie sadly passed on a couple of years back, so I guess there are only about 150 to 200 books with the dual signatures.
Hope you enjoyed reading Bertie’s story.
Best regards.
Peter.
I thanked him for his speedy reply and now it's on here...Pretty cool find for the money.
