ReplyDeleteI own this guide but the inside front copy I have is not blank.
ReplyDeleteIt reads:

Just thought you might like to know.
In addition, the next to last page omits:
ReplyDeletePrinted....
and
For additional copies..
The latter is understandable being a limited edition.
I have one of these programs and I am passing it on to my son who is an artist. Does anyone know the value of these programs? Thanks for the information.

ReplyDeleteI think you have a real treasure. However, I just did an eBay search and saw one with a current bid of $1.99 and several days to go. Ah, well.... If I didn't have a copy, I'd sure put in my bid for one. I think we paid about $10 for ours at an old shop in the New Orleans area.
I think your son is getting a great piece!
And thanks for the comment!!! Bob ;D
