In the early 1930s, the Italian publisher Aeronautica published an amazing book entitled I Cento Aeroplani Caproni - 1909-1930 ("Caproni's Hundred Aircraft - 1909-1930").

The book consists of a short biography, followed by a recapitulation of all built types and projects, from CA 1 to CA 116, in the form of a small text with specs for each, and a three-view arrangement for most. No photos.

This book is a must for anyone with a serious interest in these old Italian aircraft. Unfortunately it is of course no longer available.

As I managed to find a copy of it, I'm sharing in this topic the complete set of three-view arrangements and text items for all the types covered by the book.

Here is the cover of the book (I've cleaned it up a bit):
