Up to now I am Leader / Winner: I printed out the Manual of "Derby Day, October 1967": http://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=667 . (I also have the Partial Manual of Shangri-La - but it is only a collection of loose papers - NOT a real manual).
How about YOU ? Greetings Rolf

P.S.: A "REAL" Manual has a Front-Cover-Page and the pages are "put together as in a book" (I do not know the right English word - I am german speaking).

P.P.S.: Does an pinsider (You) buy the mentioned "Beat Time, September 1967" in EBAY and beat me ? - https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/anyone-know-the-first-williams-game-to-include-a-manual - http://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=213

I already have a Beat Time manual, I'll have to get the scanned and sent to IPDB. I have the Catalog Supplement "F" for Derby Day, not sure if I have the "A" supplement shown in that auction - since it didn't say Beat Time on it I wouldn't have filed it with Beat Time.

Hi Rolf, not sure if I'm reading your post right because you speak another language and it might be a translation thing but the 'Beat Time' manual is still available on ebay.

Hi Pinballprowess
Yes, the Manual still is on EBAY - to be paid in US-Dollars. I live in Switzerland (South of Germany) and I do not feel to "try to wire money to USA" - I do not use PayPal and such, maybe it might be a chance using the IBAN-Number (common for to send money from one bank to another - known in the USA ?). I also live "free of Credit Cards". Greetings Rolf

That is also a lot of money for that paperwork in the ebay auction. Even living in the US and having Paypal I am not leaping at that "deal."
