Letterman Productions are the publishing 'arm' of the VLS Corporation, along with Trakz, Wingz and Warriors they produce a complimentary range of reference material dealing with both modelling and Armor reference. They are receiving a great deal of (deserved) interest from both the modelling enthusiast and the student of AFVs...

The emphasis of the Letterman Productions titles are very firmly on U.S. Armor of WWII, with a particular emphasis on the vehicles used in the Pacific campaigns. An interesting approach as this is sadly an area under-represented amongst someof the other publishing houses...

Interestingly enough, they are starting to develop titles related to the post-war era, hopefully a series on the M47/ M48 series will be forthcoming...

Forthcoming Titles From Letterman Productions

AF VISUAL (LP018) -Late war U.S. Tanks (the Pershing, Chaffee and the M40 SPG

AF VISUAL (LP019) - The M3 'Lee'

AF VISUAL (LP020) - Pacific Focus (2)

AF VISUAL (LP021) - The Stuart Series

AF VISUAL (LP022) - The Duster

LP015 - PROJECT: AFVs, USMC Tanks (Volume 1)

Notes: The first five titles are fairly self-explanatory, however LP015, is the first in a new series which deals with armor projects (in this case the M4a1, M4a2 (mid & late) and the M4a3) due to the popularity of the subject and the quantity of good AM parts on the market this should be a real success story.... The previous excursion by Lettermaninto this area, was the LVT project series. LP018 should also be invaluable if AFV Club's promised M40 ever materializes.. On the same theme, the much discussed Academy Lees will provide a market for LP019 - similar comments apply...
