Yes! Sometimes it seems folks value “the deal” more than the prize.

Mills, I assume you mean is there any new gun feature, etc. mentioned in the catalog. I don't think so, but the catalog itself is much smaller than its immediate predecessors. I assume it was created to be mailed in a regular envelop, maybe some slight shift in sales strategy. The size changes of the catalogs over time is an interesting feature.

I meant whether it was the same catalog as other more common ones but with a different cover.

That is interesting about it being the first small size catalog
