There are 23 copies available from abebooks.com Search on Rueger (author) and Decoration (title). Just two words will get you a complete list. The prices range from $1.09 (yes, nine cents plus one dollar!) to $20+. abebooks.com is an international network of antiquarian (second hand) book dealers. I once got a book (mint condition: Simpson, British Broadside Ballads) sent from Australian to Boston, Mass. So if possible select a dealer close to your home to save on postage. Some offer free postage.
