PaulNot to be a shill for SCD, but I think the reality is that it doesn't make sense to publish a book with a potential market of three or four hundred buyers. I'd love to see a vintage only book, but I don't think Lemke is just feeding us a line when he says he can't publish a book for such a small number of people. And I don't think he's misjudged the size of the market. It is small.
As I mentioned in my previous post, my hope is that Bob Lemke and SCD will at least save all the information they've collected, and hopefully continue collecting new information about vintage discoveries, and publish it all on their website to supplement whatever they leave out of the big book. They could even charge a fee for accessing and downloading the information. I think Bob genuinely enjoys reporting on vintage discoveries, so I have some hope that this will happen.
