PC: Re: Penn Central Power

["Patrick Harris" <seaboardempire@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

     Hi---Penn Central Power usually sells on eBay for around $95. I have
seen some run up over $125, but that is unusual. If you just HAVE to have it
now, you can pay the $200, but you will definitely be able to find a much
better deal if you are patient in your search. They also can be found
through Amazon's out-of-print service too. The $200 sounds like greed or
wishful thinking, but that's just my opinion, and we each have those of our
own.
     Last year when I was still searching for one, I talked to Mr. Yanosey
at Morning Sun Books about PC Power. He was non-committal about it, but at
least listened to my suggestion of a new version of PC Power, but in color.
I know 13-D wasn't the most colorful road scheme ever, but the many
subtleties of weathering would be revealed through a color-format book to
complement the black-and-white version. For him, it would be a new product
that I think would sell out, and for us it would be a great addition to the
existing book. What do you guys think?

Best wishes,
Patrick
