Will this consist of reprinted material or new material?

This is a Roger Carp project, not a CTT project. While I presume he probably picked up some photos from the magazine, 100% of the text is original from Roger.

Everything written in my latest book is brand new!! I have written new material to introduce the book and explain the project of selecting what I think are the 101 best items (locomotives, freight cars, passenger cars, accessories, sets, and more) released during the postwar era of 1945-69 in O and S gauge. All the one- or two-page essays are brand new, using research that I have conducted over the more than 20 years I have worked at "Classic Toy Trains." Some photographs are not new, but the vast majority are! I think that everyone who collects, operates, or just admires postwar toy trains will enjoy and learn from this book. See what you think--it will be available from Kalmbach Publishing in October. Roger Carp

Thanks, Roger.  It sounds like a must-have.
