[SEL] Alan C. King advertisement books

[Larry Evans]

Hi.......

The Alan King books are a good resource for engine information but with 8 
separate volumes, each with their own index they are sometimes a little 
tedious to use.  About 20 years ago when I got my first computer (Apple 
IIe) I embarked on a project of making a combined and expanded index of the 
whole series in one volume.  I did it primarily as an exercise in learning 
about computers and their software in general and specifically how to use 
the data base program.  Besides just copying the original index from each 
volume my brother and I looked at each individual ad and made separate 
entries entries if there was an engine model name different from the 
manufacturer so the ads are cross referenced also.  It ended up being about 
25 pages long and the same size and shape at the King volumes.

At that time we had some of them printed up and I still have a few 
left.  If you have most or all of the books and I haven't sent you one in 
the past I would be glad to send you one.  If you are interested contact me 
OFF LIST and we can work out the details.  My email address is in my
