That must be this. I have a copy and wore it out back in the day looking stuff up. It had distinct advantages over Beckett with a wider range of sets and an alphabetical checklist.

In addition, some of you you may recall I worked for Current Card Prices when it was launched. Richie Schwararoch, who owned it, ripped out pages from a copy of this book and we marked them up for the typist who put together our original lists in the 'zine. I remember calling Ralph Nozaki up and checking on certain variations as part of this process.
