[rescue] Old Sun price book (Will Enestvedt)

Thu Sep 10 19:13:28 UTC 2026

I imagine that Al would prefer someone else scan it and submit it to Bitsavers themselves. Just a guess.

And, at least when I last checked, CHM has so many physical items now that they are more picky about accepting items.

If no one else has offered, I am willing to scan it and send the scan to Bitsavers and upload it to the Internet Archives, then send the physical copy to whoever wants to keep it.

I find that hard to believe though, but if no one else can point to a good scan, I would be interested in getting it so that I can scan it to upload places, if we can arrange a shipping option I can afford.  I am in 17603, since you didn't post where you would be sending from.
