Rare Book: The Alpa Reflex Manual, by Jacob Deschin, NR

Description
I've called this book rare because I could not find one listed on eBay in current or completed auctions. I found one copy of this book listed by the used bookseller Alibris. The price was $95.00. Amazon lists an "Acceptable" used copy at $24.99, and a "Very Good" copy at $97.50. It lists four others - all used- from $117.51 to $149.95. Used bookseller AbeBooks lists several copies, priced from $95 to $250. Maybe it is rare!

The edition offered here was Copyrighted in 1959 and published by Kinografik. It includes the Alpa models 6, 7, & 8. One eBay-associated bookseller offers supplements to this book for about $20. One of those four-page supplements is attached to the inside back cover of this book. It covers the model 6c and some then-new lenses. The supplement's copyright date is 1961.
The book is hard-bound, and has 128 numbered pages, 5.5 x 8.5 inches. It is in Excellent condition, with a little wear on the spine and some underlined passages. I have included a picture so that what wear there is may be seen. There is no dust jacket. The plain gray cover is not imprinted. The spine is gold-stamped with the title, author & publisher.

This is the third in a series of auctions in which I will offer Alpa related items, culminating a week next Saturday, July 26. If all goes according to plan, I'll then offer for auction an Excellent+ Alpa Reflex 7 with an Excellent f1.8 Switar lens. Between now & then there will also be auctions other Alpa literature, filters, lens hoods, and a 35mm f2.8 Schneider Alpa Curtagon.
