Was not sure where to post this request: i just got a copy of Making Powder Horns, Book II. 1996. 89 pages:  It is missing the following "print" on pages, 31-33-37-39-43-45: The other side of the page is printed: Can anyone tell me if these came through like this or is mine a botched copy? Any help will be appreciated: thanks, skip

I think I have a copy of that, but, alas, it is storage and I can't check it. I don't recall any missing text, though it might have had some oddities in the page layout - The idea of weird page formatting rings a bell but I can't be sure since it has been many, many years since I looked at it. Are you sure that your copy is missing text and not just formatted oddly?

Elnathan: thanks for your reply: format looks ok: its as if the copy machine did not flip the page to copy both sides: i would look to buy another copy but not sure if it will be complete: most of the ones for sale are getting up in price: thanks, skip

I had a chance to look through a copy of this (I think it was book II - it was the same as my still-in-storage copy) at the Knoxville show looking for missing pages, and I didn't see any. I think it is probably your copy.
