The TIGER50 went on sale last weekend and was well received by everyone collecting or purchasing a copy.

"Just a note to say how impressed I am with the quality and layout of the T50 Tiger Book. It was a huge under-taking
on your part to produce this ‘bible’, and it was well worth the wait"

Here are a few sample pages:

170 colour pages and 140 Tigers in a hardback book with a hard card slip cover

High quality paper fitting for the occasion being celebrated

Tigers from all points on the map

Interested in a copy? Contact STOC. Price £40 via cash, cheque, bank transfer but £42 via PayPal

Hi Graham,

Thank you very much for your reply. It is no problem for me to wait a little bit longer I just wanted to make sure that I was not forgotten.
My compliments for all the work you have done in order to make this project reality!

Best regards,

Peter

As I am picking mine up, am I still paying for postage?

The same as Peter, I am now a little confused (for a change

)

No postage charge for you Martyn as you are collecting your copy directly from the printer. Peter on the other hand cops P&P as his copy will be winging its way to Holland!!

Indeed copies are being sent all over the place including, Canada, USA, Oz and NZ. In the case of Oz 5 books are being sent in one parcel to minimise P&P.

Ok, thanks Graham.

I forgot to mention, if there is anyone else in the Derby/Notts area that is getting a book and wants it picking up, let me know.
For that matter, anyone in the Rugby area too as I'm down there most weeks.

It will save you a few Pounds and removes any risk of damage.

It's a very good book and very nicely printed.

Mine has arrived thank you. Have not opened the package as its my birthday in couple of weeks. Think it will be a nice B'day present to me from the missis. Better than the socks & jocks.
