I started grinding my first parabolic lens in the seventies.

To accompany these fine scopes I have a complete set of Vixen LMV eye pieces. This is only a taste of what there is in my collection, but what I really want is a Herald & Bobroff Astroatlas, I am presently borrowing one from the ASSA (Astronomical society of South Australia, Whyalla branch) but that will have to go back soon, and I am enquiring if any of you guys have a copy that you don’t use or willing to pass along to a budding mad star gazer.
I would be more than willing to pay a good price: Any assistance in acquiring a copy any condition, don’t hesitate to email me. Have placed a wanted add also. Here from me later on what I am up to and the direction. PS Still working on my page.
