These should be printed as 8.5"x11" landscape layout.

I was sold on your picture and have ordered a copy! Actually is even cheaper here in Britain £18 with postage which is around $24 USD.Curt A wrote: ↑Mon Mar 18, 2024 10:05 pm The "Needle Tin Bible" is Grammophon-Nadeldosen by Horst-Dieter Linz. It has pictures and info on nearly every known needle tin and variation. They normally retail around $90 USD, but there is one on Amazon for $31 USD.

Glad you decided on it, you won't be disappointed. I have spent many hours looking at tins, then searching on eBay for examples...
Good luck, that's why my avatar says "Needle Tins are addictive". A whole new rabbit hole to explore...
