"The Hardy Boys: The Great Airport Mystery"
by Franklin Dixon
A wonderful book for the collector or Hardy Boys fan. The Great Airport Mystery is Volume 9 in the original The Hardy Boys Mystery Stories published by Grosset & Dunlap.
This book was written for the Stratemeyer Syndicate by Leslie McFarlane in 1930.
In the original version of this story, the criminals are local Bayport hoods who team up with a former mail plane aviator pilot in a plot to steal a large payroll. The boys are framed for stealing the mail and get bailed out of jail by Mr Applegate from Tower Treasure and Mr Jefferson from Cabin Island. They also graduate from high school.
Through research I have identified that the brown binding and the orange Gretta endpaper was for the period of 1932 through 1951. However, the publication date in this book is 1930 and the first edition was first written and published in May of 1930. Therefore, I believe this book to be a first edition. If you have more information or questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
This book is in very good condition with very little wear for its age. No writing in book, no tears, rips, or marks with all pages intact and in excellent condition. Some very light wear at corners of hardback and a small stain on outside of spine (can be seen in seventh photo). Last blank endpaper page has some tiny pinholes in it. Does not have dust jacket. Please note that I am not grading this book and this would need to be done by a collector with specialized knowledge of book grading. If you are a collector, please ask any questions that you may have to assess condition.

Reviews
Thank you great pin fast delivery
The doll I received isn't the one from the picture. Only one flower on her hat and missing tags. For $100 I expect what I paid for. I am incredibly dissapointed and will not shop with seller again.
Received item exactly as described. Very happy with my purchase, thanks.
What a great seller. Took extra photos for me and emailed them. Very easy to communicate with, and I got exactly what I expected-a beautiful vintage dress for my son's wedding, that was in excellent condition.
