Default Tommy Stuff sales page updated

We're getting bids for printing the expanded and revised edition of the book Uniforms of the WWII Tommy. Figured I would add a lot of things to the sales page since I'll need to generate some funds to help offset costs of printing.

As usual, the rare items will no doubt sell out fast. Lots of weapons, equipment, insignia and uniforms related items listed which are almost all original WWII British and Commonwealth. There are a couple of postwar items as well that are good for reenactors and those are identified on the site as such. But the bulk is original collectibles.

Back on the book, it will have 658 pages (same size as the expanded Equipment of the WWII Tommy) with 24 pages in color.

Link for the updated sales page is:

Please post again once the new book is ready.
I would much rather pay you for the revised edition than pay someone on ebay even nearly the same as the new edition, let alone the premium some of them think they can charge.

I'll do a separate announcement once we have the books available. Link below has content details for the revised edition and it will have ordering links on it like the other book pages after we actually have books in hand.

It also drives me crazy to see book places selling new and used copies for significantly inflated prices. We're hard pressed to break even due to the high cost of printing such a small book run but can't afford to print a large enough quantity to get the unit costs down since it is a niche market. Guess that is what makes it a hobby and a labor of love.

If you need a used copy of the weapons book, there is one available on the Amazon.UK web site for only £370.78 Course we have the new expanded edition which has several hundred additional pages for $34.95
