does anybody have any info on how many versions of the cover there were for Car of the Century? and any idea as to at which numbered volume things changed? I have seen two different versions of Volume 1 cover and in two different hues of blue. one was under 500 and the other was over a 1000.

the photos at the top were switched on the later Volume 1 and were originally on the earlier Volume 2 which was also under 500.

does anyone know how many volumes were printed/sold of each?

thanks folks!

I would like to know if ALL of the volumes are numbered?
I can't find a number on my Volume 1 anywhere.
