http://shop.abc.net.au/browse/product.asp?productid=164117
is the Aussie link. I don't know if it is available elsewhere. confused

Quote from the above link.
"Uniquely, this book contains superb items of removable facsimile memorabilia slipped into the pages, plus photographs".

It includes 40 removable facsimile items of Tour de France memorabilia.
Even reproductions of postcards by Salvador Dali.
Price is around AUD$60 and it is a heavy epistle.

Dimensions are 12.25" x 11" x 1.5" thick, and quite heavy.
310mm x 280mm x 35mm thick, for you metric mob.

I think it will become a collectors item. Bazza

 

i am not a great fan of the Tour but here in Belgium it's the biggest thing in sport, they are obsessed with cycling every village has it's own little tour and the roads are always blocked with cycle teams(all in the same clothes)which is ok except they think everyone should get out of their way at all times regardless of the situation.

i did not find a Belgian web site for the book (it must be out there somewhere) but i found a copy on E bay in the UK.

the Tour De France started in the UK this week and it passed by here yesterday on the way to France where it belongs,maybe it should now be called the Tour De Europe.http://bestsmileys.com/exercising/14.gif
