I have been rather bored today and as a result, have been looking at digitised books on the interweb.

I like the look of this lots:-

Can anyone tell me where I can get my hands on a paper copy with all the fold out plans?

I'm wondering how complete the reprints were. Anyone?

What's the going rate for an original?

I am aware of the Ham Jenks style booklets. Clearly this is not in that form.

Care to educate me?

Just been reading it online, mine descriptions etc much the same, if not less, than the writings of Noall et al, the diagrams and plans on the other hand might be useful, unfortunately you can't access them on the google reader.

The reprints were very good from what I remember. As for original 1st editions.......how many arms and legs do you have spare? :lol:
