This turns out to be a really neat document. It has foldouts that I couldn't scan in one piece with the equipment I have, so I sent it to Dave at Artek Media. He's done a stalwart job of scanning the manual at high resolution with as much of its original "patina" as could be retained without going completely out of control with the file size.
As it is, it's over 100 MB, due to being scanned in color at my request. Sounds pointless for a service manual, but the reason is apparent as soon as you open the file, because this isn't just another service manual. Here's his listing for the scan: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=390289796187 A couple of sample pages: http://www.thegleam.com/ke5fx/sample1.jpg http://www.thegleam.com/ke5fx/sample2.jpg Recommended for Cs clock nuts and history-of-technology fans in general.
