"Deluxe" Dealer Brochure

[Anders]

Thanks Dutchbird!

I´m starting to get frustrated. Must find one for ´58....
Would love to drool over this pages.....

What is the correct name for this "booklet"? Need to know what to search for.....
Edit: Found one on Ebay... "Buy it now" for 84.99......
Please guys.... Don´t bid on it....



There is something "totally right" about this colour combo. The hat is not bad either....

Marco, thanks so much for showing us the 58 brochure. I'll copy and save those pics you had sent so I know what to look for and purchase. I did some internet searching last night and found several for sale for between $25-$35 USD. All of them were footnoted with *small version. Now that I have seen your pics, I know what the small version is. It isn't as large as the '60 brochure. Thanks again!

Hi Jed,

Can't figure out what a "Small Version" exactly is or contains, but I think it means it's a foldout brochure. The ones with 4 or 6 pages instead of a 16-page brochure.

Marco,
Thanks so much for taking the time to scan this! On the engine page is a picture of a T-bird like my Yellowbird.

Hi Anders,

You spotted a right one there, as I found out in the past mostly they're called "Deluxe Brochures"
(I think because of the pages as a book instead of a foldout brochure)

EDIT: Please Anders......Don't bid on it......unless your money is no issue??
(If you'll give yourself some time, you can buy two or more brochures for this price)

I would suppose you guys over in Europe must figure that since the Euro has now fallen back to $1.46USD that maybe you ought to wait till it gets back up to $1.55 before you do any more Birdstuff shopping.

Thanks guys.
I have already the thin ones, and as far as I am aware of, most other broschures and manuals. But not this 16 pages "book of wonders"
