470EDDYUPDATE- I found and purchased a new copy from Guy Davies at Holland and Holland in Dallas, advertised on Guns International, $125 plus shipping!!
These are a nice new book and a H&H Special Edition ... he has a few that are damaged in shipping.
This is a MASSIVE coffee table sized book you will not hold up with one hand while sipping a Scotch!! Two hands or on the table!!
I would say this is a required reading for anyone who is a Holland and Holland Collector.
I also did get an offer of a private copy from a good AR member....after I had ordered mine from H&H.
Thank you all!!

470EDDYSpeak to Guy Davies, H&H DALLAS, directly, he will need your credit card and shipping info any way, he ships FedEx 2-3 day, was $15 to Seattle-Tacoma area... so maybe before Thanksgiving if you call Monday!! You won't be disappointed!!

470EDDYThis excellent Book by DALLAS was first published in 2003 and sold out, reprinted in 2015 and sold out again!!
The shipment that Guy Davies at H&H DALLAS is a special H&H edition and the cover may look a little different, the name is the same.
Really a spectacular book... and DALLAS is a very accomplished author on many books on various makers of Double Rifles....
You won't be disappointed!!
