old rigger memorabilia

Anyone else have one of these pamphlets (see pic)?  Copyright 1975 by Donald Beck (of DJ Associates, founder of PIA).  Interestingly, photo credit on the front provided by Strong.  Mine is in pristine shape and I was lucky enough to be gifted it about 12 years ago, so it sits next to my other parachuting books/pamphlets/etc.  Just curious if others have seen it.  Thanks!

Yes, I used to have a copy when I was a Rigger-Examiner. Most of that pamphlet is still valid.

 It just needs to be updated with the more recent variations on 3-Rings and the stainless steel hardware coming from France.

Please delete the chapter about stainless steel hardware coming from South Korea.
