Funny enough, just last night at '4 & 20'  I mentioned how I USED to have several P & L devices !

 

Great stuff, fantastic collectibles... lost due to unappreciative past girlfriend who threw them, along with plenty of OTHER magic props and books away !  *sigh*

 

Never seen this book, though.  I too would be interested in viewing it.

 

I obtained my P & L 'stuff' as used and generally unwanted/under appreciated from both Joe Berg (where Ring 21 met for 'ages') and Les Smith (Magic Supreme) --- again, ironically, mentioned both of THEM too, last night !  (in the context of how they were my 'sponsors' when I joined the Castle in 68).

 

Good luck, let me know if you succeed !
