Show us your BMX books..

I've still got my original copy of this from when I was a kid ... ( I even got Bob to sign it at MK )



I love my books and have a fair few but I wonder if I've missed out on any ?

Andy ( DTTDB ) recently got a job lot containing 2 I'd never seen before ...

Show us what you got ?

Weirdly those are the other 2 books that I've got which I had back in the day ... I still love flicking through them now! ....
In fact there is a picture in the Freestyle book which is inspiring my latest build  fistblump

Got most of those .. What's the bob Osborn BMX action book like ? I've seen it on a vintage website but it'll cost £50 with shipping plus tax so I'm holding out!

It's good,  248 pages very much like BMXA in content. £50 though, ouch.
