I've lately started collecting original literature for these same type engines. The prices have jumped up so much on the engines, I can hardly afford to buy anymore, and it has taken a lot of the fun from the hobby and made more a business out of it. I can still afford to buy literature for these same engines and it is as much fun locating and buying as it was with the engines.

    Below are some of my favorites from my collection. Some of them are graphic intensive so please give them time to load and enjoy.

Above is the front of this flyer, and below is the back.
