I bought the book from Sunbeam Specialties, 408-371-1642. I believe they
have it @ $18.95. Though not very "thick" it has some nice pictures, & I
found it quite a good source of info (By no means am I a Tiger expert).

At twenty bucks, it's an inexpensive addition to a Tiger owner's (or
dreamer's :) collection.
