<HTML>I recently aquired this magnificient piece of history that my dad left in some of his stuff when he passed away. I was looking to bring it together with the owner of a Doble Steam Car. It has a black cover with Doble in silver on the front with 16 pages of black and white photos of Doble Steam Cars, Drive trains, Chassies and the last page is the Warranty that would come with each Doble Steam Car. It's in close to mint condition</HTML>

<HTML>Kurt,
This is the last Doble catalog, printed in 1925.
It was also reprinted by Barney Becker twice. The first time it looks just like an original, the second time it was not of the same quality.
In both reprints, the silver DOBLE name on the cover was not raised, as on the originals, one way to tell.
I have five of them, so let some other steam car buff have it. But; thanks very much for letting me know about it.
