One is the aquisition of new titles to reproduce as well as reprinting those that sell out. And will those nice little under-$5 titles suddenly go up? The biggest thing I'll miss is there won't be anymore wonderful Vestal Press Catalogues which have given me so much pleasure over the years. I have always carried one in by tool case's catalogue pocket and turning customers on to it has been fun. I'll miss that a lot. The upside of that is that old Vestal Press catalogues in good condition will appreciate and might be worth good money someday. Old Lee Valley Tools catalogues are already worth a fair bit to collectors and they're still in business. John Musselwhite, RPT Calgary, Alberta Canada musselj@cadvision.com
