help with a very rare book
    #11797650 - 01/09/10 05:40 PM (14 years, 2 months ago)

with the help of the moderator roger rabbit i have been able to locate an extremely rare book by George Barger entitled Ergot and Ergotism (1931).  The problem is the book is at the university of Giessen library, Germany.  i would like to call upon the help of a German national to check-out this book and make scans of it.  i can trade spore syringes for services.  any help would be unbelievably appreciated!!

thnx in advance

Before anyone jumps on this guy with "wrong forum", I'll say that if he is to find success, he needs to reach a lot of people to hopefully find someone who can help. The marketplace is much less active so I hope the mods let this slip.

Godspeed

to reach as many as possible would be the main reason for posting the same thread in three different forums on this site.

thnx for the godspeed!  so far its been quite a daunting task

i ask for the mods to let that one slide..pretty please?

It's a contest. First to find the book and scan it, receives prints.

There. Now, it's not the wrong forum. :laugh:

It appears that my university has a copy of it.  I won't make any promises, but I can look into making some scans for you.  It would likely take a few days since it seems to be listed at 280 pages and has to come in from an alternate campus.

this is why this place is the most wonderful place on the net.

this is ppl helping ppl get around the bullshit in the system to
learn.


as RATM said, "they don't need to burn the books/they just remove em."



once that is digitized, it's an internet star forever, just like less deserving subjects such as Boxxy. :rolleyes::tongue2::stoned:


once knowledge is floating in the webzes, it's almost impossible to put that genie back in the bottle.

this tickles me pink.

if you can't beat them, arrange to have it done.

No problem.  i would be more than happy to send you a couple of syringes for the amazing help.  PM me a mailing address and let me know which two you would like and i'll mail em the moment those scans are done.

I just placed a request for it, so I should have it by Tuesday.  Once I get it, I'll let you know how rapidly things progress.

You could also try messaging German Kahuna, he's a pretty good guy and may be able to help. Though it is a long-shot that he lives near the place.

there's a lot of PDFs that reference the book, type the author, title and pdf into google and you'll probably find a lot of info

here's a copy for sale

http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B002L10YAW/ref=dp_olp_0?ie=UTF8&qid=1263089829&sr=1-7&condition=all


and cross posting is kinda frowned upon

all the pdf's i've found are various mycological papers that merely reference the book.  also fundage issues prohibit me from purchasing that tantalizing  first edition copy you provided a link for(thank you btw).

This might be a long shot, but IF you got like 39 people to all kick in $5 that would cover the cost of the original copy.....then you could hand a copy out to everyone who kicked in??????........I would be game...........

myceleus_rex .........Yeah LOL the FLASHBACK DOG is an old war buddy of mine LOL, we were in the SHIT together.......(sorry for the thread jack:smirk:)
