I am after originals or photocopies of any issues of:
The Third Jungle Book; 3 Commando Brigade (in the Far East).

I am fortunate that JohnM has kindly provided me of a copy of Issue No 9, March 1946, but I know that there were other issues - Andy Maines has posted extracts from a September 1945 issue.



I am willing to pay a fair price, or make donations to either CVA or Commando Benelovent Fund, in exchange for originals or copies thereof.

Thanks,
Nick

Hi Nic
Just spotted your message concerning the Third Jungle book, as you are aware I have been loaned a couple of copies of this publication one dated July 1944 and the second, extracts of which which I have uploaded on to the Forum, dated Sep 1945. The July version was just copied on a photo copier before I had obtained a scanner, although I have now returned this to the owner, I intend to recopy it using a scanner in the near future when I return the September issue which I still have.
I have already emailed the whole of the September issue to John Mewitt, and I am more than happy to do the same for yourself. I could also scan the photo copied July issue and email this to you, and when I scan the July issue in the near future I could then also send this to you.
I am more than happy to do this and don't require any money etc, if you would prefer to have photo copies I can also do this.
When I photocopied the July issue I did it so the copies were back to back so that I could actually make it in to a booklet, I also intend to do this with the Sep issue.
Let me know how you would like to receive the copies ie email or hard copy or indeed both and I will gladly take care of the rest. In either case I will need a home address to send it to or an email address. I have attached a copy of the front cover sheet of the July issue to give you an idea of its contents.

Cheers Andy
