Excellent presentation JK. It is certainly a fine book. No Brooklin collector should be without it.

Thank you.

This is no doubt a fabulous reference book for Brooklins which I enjoy and use.  The only change I would make (maybe for a future update) would be a listing sorted by marque.   The existing listing is by Brooklin's number which makes it difficult to find a particular car in a certain make.    This should not be hard to do if this listing by Brooklin number is on an Excel spread sheet with the publisher.

Another great and informative video John.

You stated that anyone who purchased the first guide will get the second one.

I purchased the first guide directly from Brooklin, but haven't received the second one yet.

Have they already started sending them? or do you have to contact Brooklin to let them know you are interested in getting one?

@ben-lampson, you should get the update to Vol 1. But Vol 2, the Lansdowne Guide, is a separate piece and has to be purchased. If you haven't received the update on the Brooklin Collector's Guide, notify Amanda.

 

My apologies if I created any confusion.

Same.

 

Edit: I did get an email with a printable pdf, but not what you are showing. I love the book, so I'm not going to gripe. I have no more room anyway, and I hate to say it, but the allure is slipping for these models. More accurate, but less charm,

@ed-glorius, if you send Amanda an email, they'll send you a hard copy of the update.

@john-quilter

I made the list by manufacturer and it is included in the Update 2020 of the Guide.
