My dad found this in a book he has. Sadly most of these will be dead by now.

they wouldn't be rare if all these were shipped to Australia

I am interested in the old books. I have one from 53 where they let a young art photographer into the factory and there is a whole book of great photos.
It is packed away so I dont know what it is called at the mo. i do know it it volume 2 and I have been looking for vol 1 for years now.
