If DB doesn't want them, I will save/store them.

Interest in Prime manuals?

2017-08-31 Thread Ethan Dicks via cctalk
Hi, All,

Been helping a friend clean out his garage and we ran across a cubic
foot of Prime manuals, mostly software and applications, probably from
the early to mid 1980s (I did not see clear indication on casual
inspection).  These have been unfortunately stored in a place that has
gotten damp so they are *not* pristine.  The couple I looked through
were not so bad the pages were glued together, but there's a definite
smell of must and mold.

I leafed through the prime directory on bitsavers and did not
recognize any titles.  Is there another repository of Prime docs I can
check to see if these have already been scanned?  Is anyone so
interested in Prime docs they want to pay shipping (or take possession
at VCFmw) for slightly-damaged manuals?

If I don't hear a clear and resounding affirmative, the owner will
toss these very soon, as in tomorrow or the end of the weekend at the
latest.
