The "hardcovers" are leather bound...

LEATHER BOUND COPIES ARE RARE.
TYPICALLY THE HARD COPIES ARE NOT LEATHER BOUND BUT CLOTH.

I stand corrected.... though the 3 copies I have purchased over the years (all from ebay) were described as hardcopies and were Leather.

YOUR A LUCKY MAN! YOU WERE IN THE RIGHT PLACES AT THE RIGHT TIME.
BUT I THINK I CAN TOP THAT WITH A CLOTH COVERED BOOK AUTOGRAPHED BY IGNAZ SCHWINN!

Thanks Bob for the heads up on the existence of this book. I found one on eBay this afternoon at $59.50 or best offer and Free shipping. I offered him $30 and he accepted. A lot of them I saw on eBay were $60 to $200 plus for the leather one .Can’t wait to get it . Pictures from ebay below. This is why THE CABE is the greatest hobby spot. I’d love to have a book like this on Shelbys , but I’ll settle for all the reprints I’ve got from Scott. Thank God he is doing that at least. Again, thanks for the heads up!
