Very kind of you Sir but I don't currently own a scanner.

I identified Ross Thomson many years agai, and as he lived quite locally - not far from where Mike Noble lived, Kim Steven’s and myself interviewed him. This has never been published.

Re: Tiger Tim's Rainbow Painting Book

Can't find any info Steve.
Obviously Tiger Tim was massive and originated in Rainbow but how rare is this???
I can't find it.
So it appears to be rare.
Thanks for pics you posted, excellent to see the "Nestle" ad.
Best of luck and let us know how the auction went.
