Hello Mark

Sorry for the late answer.
my email client mistakenly sent your email to spam, I just noticed it now.

Thanks for your reply.
my goal is a little different. Of course, I've already studied all the
online sources: archive.org, winworldpc, Betaarchive, OS/2 Museum, OS/2
World etc.

I'm looking for information (screenshots. Photos, disk images) of those
versions that are not available online. Few people pay much attention to
the detailed study of early OS/2.

each version had several varieties (floppy disk packaging, CSDs,
localization, OEM), and I strive to find and save information about each
such variety.

many online resources don't even distinguish between similar but different
distributions, for example.

Also, some versions remain undiscovered, for example, many UK versions
(1.2SE, 1.30.0 SE, 1.30.1 EE/SE, 1.30.2 EE/SE).
The American version 1.30.1 SE was not found.
no version of IBM 1.1–1.3 5.25 has been found.
many CSD packages are lost.
etc.

I hope that someone has preserved something of what they lost.
Very many OEM versions of MS OS/2 were released in extremely limited
editions, and are of exceptional value.

Best regards.
–Georg
