CJ, with all your posts and rummaging through your files, what about putting a book together with all copies of all the ads/brocheres/articles/press kits, etc that have been produced and selling it through the Prowler store.

Obviously a massive project but you seem to be doing a lot of the work by posting for our enjoyment. (permission to reprint might be tricky)

This would end up being the ultimate Prowler collectible. I would think people would pay handsomely for such a book - especially if you signed each copy

There is a company called Brooklands Books that writes car books called "Gold Portfolios". They are a collection of all of the magazine articles written on that car. They do a lot of books on low production cars like the Pantera and Marcos. I'll bet they could be convinced to do one on the Prowler.

Here is their Email

info@brooklands-books.com


I sent them an Email, introducing myself and the club and asked them to produce a Prowler book. Who knows...maybe something will come out of it.

Interesting idea, but publishing a book would definitely be a huge undertaking and costly, I'm sure. That does give me an idea, though. Instead of a book, I might do color copies (or digital photos printed) of all the articles and at least put together a binder. It would be easier to look at everything than going through all the magazines. I do have the articles marked with color tabs, but it's still time consuming to go through all the magazines....there's close to a hundred, at least. Thanks for the idea!

Hopefully, Pantera can generate some interest with the Brooklands Books people.

As mentioned in previous posts. Aren't these magazine articles all copy-righted? Don't want to forget about copy-right laws.

You're right about the copyright laws. That's another reason why I would not undertake such a project. An actual book company like the one Pantera mentioned might be able to accomplish getting reprint permission from all the magazines.

If I put together a binder of color copies, it will be just for myself (not to make copies and sell).......and anyone else that might want to look at it.

Lone Ranger..........Okay, when I hit the lottery, I'll do that! lol!

Or I guess, if I made myself a binder and sent it to you to copy, then you could send it to someone else to copy, etc. etc. etc..........I wonder when I would get it back? Year 2010 maybe??

CJ, make two copies. Keep one original, send the other one around the world. It might meet up with the Armadillo at some point.

Wasn't that a George Strait song:

"Armadillo by morning"?

Great idea. LOL You could make it like a chain letter/ binder and if the recipient doesn't make copies and send it to seven other POA members within a short period of time their wheels would start to peel. Oops, forget the wheel thing......lol.
