Hi Cookee,

Thanks for uploading this story - I didn't know that this booklet existed. Do you have any other pages scanned?

Hi Peter,

It's a very small booklet, about the same size as the loco instruction sheets of the same era, 10.5 x 9 cm but bound in a plastic/vinyl cover and about 1cm thick.

It opens with a History of the House of Märklin (I have several "History of Marklin" articles now, all written in a slightly different way), then it mixes calendar pages with random images, cartoons etc, then at the back it has the Honeymoon story shown above, then several pages for Names and phone numbers, and then several more blank perforated pages (designed to be torn out) for notes.

Fortunately it's in top condition and I would think fairly rare. Especially in English.

It's around 100 pages but is fiddly to scan because of the size and getting it straight and flat.

I did start scanning it when I first got it but ran out of enthusiasm. I will continue with it as and when time allows.

Interestingly, and very unusual for a publication from this period, it does not carry the usual printing code.

Thanks for your interest in it. ThumpUp

Often that's just the encouragement needed to continue.

I used to have something similar, but IIRC it was a diary from about 1960, but was all in German. I really do wish I knew where it had got to, but I suspect it was thrown out by my parents in a cleanup.
