Re: [CBQ] Quality of photos and printing/paper for Roy Campbell collection book

Kevin -

I have a copy I bought a couple of years ago, and I am impressed with it.   It includes samples of most classes of Q steam, including some early locos and most of the well-known later locos.   The photos are excellent quality and are each printed as a full-page photo.   Most are 3/4 side views with some action shots.   It is a softbound book with good paper, printing, and binding.   There is little text except for brief captions.   It does not have the complete coverage of Corbin's book, but it has excellent detailed photos on each subject, best because they are full page and show details that modelers might look for.

I was thinking of ordering the book, Burlington Route Steam: Locomotive Photos from the Roy Campbell collection, and wondered if the photo/printing/paper quality is as good as those in the book, Steam Locomotives of the Burlington Route. I've seen a few vintage steam books on my local shop that have rough paper stock or otherwise poor reproduction, and wonder how this book fares. Pleas elem me know, thanks!
