neil 524 #12 Posted August 19, 2014 Paul. Delighted you have got one of Michaels books . Would you believe we spent 7 hours getting the books prepared for sale. Michael, myself , Michaels daughter Michelle & Carolyn spent all day folding books sleeves, making boxes My job was to make boxes & pack the books, Carolyn's job was to number the books , Michaels job was to fold book covers & sign books. Michaels lounge was covered in boxes , books and wrapping while we were preparing them for the Wheelhorse show The book is an awesome book & well worth buying & will only increase in value. The first edition has reach a value of over $400 on amazon . Anyone wishing to buy a book can contact http://wheelhorsestory.com/home/8-straight-from-the-horse-s-mouth-the-wheel-horse-story.html Or you can buy on US Ebay or from Redsquare 1 Triumph66 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Triumph66 1,256 #14 Posted August 19, 2014 Neil, thanks for the web link. I have registered but can't seem to load my trolley. Am I missing something obvious? Andrew Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
meadowfield 1,900 #15 Posted August 19, 2014 not sure if you need to email Michael as when I ordered last year it couldn't do the shipping charge to UK. I just mailed him and sent the money via paypal - shipping was expensive, but the book is so worth the money Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
