The original MacPaint/MacWrite distribution also contained the two manuals (MacPaint, 030-0848, stapled; MacWrite, 030-0688, wire binding) and a single changes sheet dated January 18 1984 (032-0002).

Hi Phil, Peter, et al.
I've got the MW/MP manuals. I've added that to the page. Note there's now a personal-history introduction and I've started the Mac Plus/512Ke sections, but I've got a long way to go there. The upgrades section will mostly be a link to Phil's page on the Dove upgrades and any other pages about upgrades that I think are nicely done, with a note about the "Monster Mac" 2 Mb upgrade that I got at a garage sale a while back, and a summary of what Pina says about other types of upgrades.
Phil, I'd love to have a look at the 032-0002 MW/MP changes sheet--I don't have it. If you can scan it and send it to me, that would be great. Otherwise, could you give me its title and a synopsis of what it says? I would really appreciate it. I really like your site--very helpful. I can add some information to your page about the original packaging <http://www.mandrake.demon.co.uk/Apple/m0001box.html> -- the January 1984 bundle also included a warranty card, a "Free MacWorld Offer," and the stickers. I can send you scans or photos of this stuff if you like ...
You can see the warranty card and the stickers in the DigiBarn photo, but it is not very useful because it doesn't provide enough detail. All I can see is that there are at least four disks and the one on top is a Write/Paint disk. Perhaps the owner did exactly what I did in 1984--throw out the MW/MP box and put all the disks and manuals into the plastic box.
Peter, I'd love to know if your set of materials confirms, contradicts, or adds to my little narrative:
