Fair warning - it's in Japanese (and usually sells for $100 on eBay since it's OOP).

But... it's the best Rickenbacker book ever written, IMO.

No book collection is complete without it, too, IMHO.

Purty pitures in it, but since I don't speak Japanese, I couldn't get much out of the text.... :)

Neither could I, but there are some great charts and other nice stuff in the book. Not to mention all the fantastic photographs.
