Very nice! Did you find one locally, or online? I stopped at a used bookstore earlier today, but no luck. |

I found it on Abe's right after the film came out. |

Thanks for the scans! Could you kindly confirm the measurements of the book? I've stitched all of the sections together but I wanted to be sure of what size to print it. Cheers! |

Beat me to it! Thanks, Joberg! Exactly the same as my measurements.
I should note that the book always seems to photograph (and scan) more red than it looks in person, in almost every photo that I have seen of it. Not sure why that is, but in person it looks more like orange. I tried to fix that in these scans a bit.

Michael, thank you for doing this... I'm going to find a print shop who can do a nice glossy print on cardboard to fit on a dummy book This will be the ultimate placeholder till I find the real deal
Thanks for the measurements, Joberg! _________________ Monsieur, azonnal kövessen engem bitte |

Thanks for the scans and info 7 and Joberg!
Beat me to it as well. I found it on Amazon (scans of the cover and a few inside pages). Obviously not as good as those here, but was enough to start a trace/rebuild.
Moot effort now . . . - R13 _________________ Gosh, you've really got some nice toys here . . . |

Thank you for these great scans!
Think I received the last abebooks copy, though it was ex-library and the post gouged a small hole in the front cover.
Stitched together a dust jacket based on the scans:

I've had a go at fixing this - straightened the writing and stitched better.

Perfect! Thanks
Any change you would know how to scale the image to fit the proportions of a book that's 302x221 mm?
EDIT: Think I fixed that! _________________ Monsieur, azonnal kövessen engem bitte |
