Many thanks for your nice words. My collection began in earnest with the acquisition of the book The Story of the Shadows, which I bought at that time in all available formats. The bound book is still in the condition I bought the paperback edition is not the be said. The story of the Shadows were the first book in the English language to try to read and understand. I do not know how many more times I tried it again and again to improve. After my friends and acquaintances who helped me in the English language was a small, mostly in manuscript authored own Day by Day of the Shadows. In my home town in Switzerland, I was greeted both record exchanges as Mr. Shadows and the purchase prices increased from time to time, certainly since I bought everything hung together with the Shadows.
Thanks to the acquaintance of Shadows Fan Club, I met George Geddes, Ian Kershaw, and you know Rob, and many other fans around the world and my collection of data was due to the club magazine in which I became a member.
After 24 years of collecting my own book "366 Days with the Shadows" from 1958 to 1990 was developed with over 800 pages in A4 format and bound.
On 8 April 2001 I handed over a copy to Bruce Welch, one CD-ROM for Brian 'Licorice' Locking and Jet Harris. A great moment.
The attachments shows 1.Maybe the first page of the second book 2. Jet Harris sign of the book for Bruce Welch.(my first book)
In the meantime I still working on my second book with a capacity 1958 to 1968 of maybe 1000/1500 pages.
My English language are not far better since to beginning (most made by dictionary)
once more thanks to all with her nice lines!
