Updates Wanted.  This monumental two-volume reference work was started as a planned 32-page book with mainly photos and little text. Great collector interest gave it a life of its own, growing to 584 pages and with over 150 contributors in 22 countries.

Needless to say, info was still pouring in at publication time in 2010.

In the years since its publication, contributors and collectors have wanted to fill some of the remaining gaps and add their comments, corrections and related original research.
