Folks, I have finished the rescanning of the book, "Catfish", and have published it on the Mixbook web site at this link:
http://www.mixbook.com/photo-books/interests/catfish-13547194?vk=ymWDidOAWC
Just a few items of note.
- If you decide to order, perform a google search for Mixbook promo codes. Without use of a promo code, the price will be 40-50% more. They always have promo codes out there.
- You can preview the book via a portal image that allows you to turn pages. The portal image is not great, but the final actual physical version of the book has excellent quality. I have ordered one so I could see how it turned out.
- You can order the book as a paperback or hardback. If hardback, you can upgrade to leather and you can add a dust jacket for either hardback version.
- I could not find any author's name or any copyright markings. I know it's not my work, but I'm not making any money on it, either. This is just a labor of love for historical preservation and sharing.
- I have added two things that were not in the original book: a personal post-publishing dedication to the men of the 1254th and a group battalion photo that was not in the original book but that I thought would complete it.
- The book is created in an 8.5" x 11" version, very close to the original and the closest I could get via this website. The binding and pages are also a heavier grade than the original, which is a good thing, I think.
If you order it, enjoy it. Thanks to all of you for your interest in the 1254th. If the link does not work for any reason, feel free to email me at johnkhurley@aol.com.
