        Hi Steve,
        Just a heads-up.... your telephone number for Big Lake Media as printed on the book order form from your website is (775)691-1217. So you might want to correct this to (775) 691-2217.
        Please let me know the status of your fax machine when you have time.
        Thanks.

          Speaking of books,.. I have a series of large, heavy Christophorus books,... Series 60, Series 70, series 80 etc. Each seems to be for a range of years. About 1.25" thick,... red, hard cover.

          Are these sought after? Did they originally have dust jackets?

          I can't seem to find much on them. Only the monthly paper-back stuff.

            Paul,

            The fax number should work although I have not been able to check for two days.

            We'll fix cell phone number.

              All,

              The fax number on form is correct---a number of orders received.

              We fixed the 775 number.

              Also, will fix the line that says Standard Ed available later this year; that phrase only applies to the SE.

                Hey Stuart, Those series of books certainly have a market and degree of collectability but as with any collectable paper item its going to depend almost entirely on their condition. Moisture damage, tears, frayed page and cover corners etc.

                  They are in fantastic shape. I'd almost call them mint,.. but I'm not a book expert,.. and I'm sure there is a very stringent criteria for that. The last one has some abrasions at the bottom of the front edge.

                  The books have a few blank sheets of heavy paper that are off-white,.. but the pages of the magazines inside are bright white and pristine. The bindings are excellent.

                  But they don't have dust jackets. Was wondering if they were supposed to.

                  Series 50, 60, 70, and 80.

                  The years 1964 - 1970.

                    It was worth to wait for it - the book is amazing!

                        Does this mean that I should be receiving copy too?

                        I've sent delius-klasing.de a email to ask.

                        Sry answered!

                        "many thanks for your e-mail. You are correct, the book shipped on Monday 3rd November by post. Propably you will received it in the next week."

                          Hi Neil,

                          Well---assuming you ordered from D-K---I believe they are now filing orders.

                          New news to me today is that Porsche and D-K store books at another company and ship to vendors/resellers from their. (I do not know where D-K ships from to retail customers--maybe the same place/company).

                          That said, I'm now told as well that books are at Porsche and some time next week will go on sale at the Museum shop.

                          Unfortunately, I now expect books to arrive for me to sell/distribute late next week. I had hoped for this week (actually, I had hoped for last month).

                          Anyway, that's what I know as of the moment.

                              Thanks for posting. These are likely from D-K that they have put on EBay Germany at same price.
                              Good way to get in Europe.

                                Guys,

                                Still no books in U.S.

                                I was advised today that my relatively small initial shipment is at the airport awaiting pick up and air freight to me.

                                So---if you want one of the first ones here, please send in your order:

                                www.biglakemedia.com

                                or---

                                www.4-cam.com

                                You can also fill out form, scan and email.
