Vehicle Data Book: pre-March 1944 edition??

[Dennis Cardy]

Hanno, and Alex van der Wetering.
Questions have been asked about Bill Gregg's vehicle book.
Hopefully, this will help.

This cover is the first edition.

A few seconds reading of the introduction page explains what Dr. Gregg was up to.

Long story, short..
An original data book was copied, page by page, on a large format film negative. He insisted on maximum quality.
Thus the page numbers are correct.

He also explains why some of the original, crappy quality photo's were replaced.
Mistakes were made, such as the photo on page 61 is probably not a 15cwt.

I would just add, this was pre-computer and pre-internet days, and the very beginnings of the CMP restoration movement in Canada. He was doing pioneering work.
