Re: Boosey & Hawkes Woodwind Book

It took me a couple of decades to locate a copy of the 1940-41 Year Book. After searching for the first few years, I popped into B&H in Regent St (some archival room in the rear of the place) and they went through their records and was unable to find any trace of the print run at all. After another heap of years, I finally located a copy through Abebooks so finally pinned it down in Nova Scotia at $US20 plus a heap of postage. And my copy is pretty fragile too.

A couple of years ago, I noticed Basil Tchaikov's library came onto the market with a copy of the 1940-1 book. That went to another CASS member I contacted.

In short, as mentioned earlier, AbeBooks laced with a great deal of patience finally payed off
