I still have my copy of "L'Historia..." also in the same condition! But I'm not giving MINE up!

L'Historia Bandido can be found on ebay for very little money.
However "pristine" condition surely means that the pages don't fall out - which is the case on every version of the book I've seen. It was bound so badly that once you opened it a bit pages became loose...
but I don't think that anybody will pay a lot of money for it.

Thanks Dietmar. I figured it wasn't worth much.

Well, I hated it when my book became a bunch of pages..I tried to sellotape it back together, which ofcourse I shouldn't, and didn't work anyway. I still like the book though (and wouldn't sell it), except for the cover image :)

I've waited to comment on this due to the massive amount of time it took me to go through it all but I've got to tell you that it is indeed spectacular.
Holy hell, that's a LOT of information to dissect. Not sure how you did it all but huge thanks are in order. What a great resource.
It takes something rather impressive for me to get up off my lazy ass and make a big stink but this Wiki did it. I even ran over to facebook to become a fan.

Thanks, Dufmanno. I work on it, and I'm pretty proud to admit that even I'm impressed. It's still growing, of course, and, as sockii said, we need help developing quality article content, but there are some really interesting and unusual resources and info in there. I find the ephemera collection to be really neat, both from a band perspective and a general design/history perspective, and we've been granted permission to include so many excellent photos. (I linked my most recent fave on the FB page the other day: http://www.policefans.org/Police_wiki/i ... damico.jpg ) The wiki's contributors rock.

BTW, a reminder for anyone who'd like to join our FB page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Polic ... 889?ref=ts . Recent news, random factoids, links, and photos a-plenty!
Dramatic highlights & a unique musical cosmos. Guaranteed.
