This is laser printed on 24 pound paper. Copy paper is generally 20 pound and you can feel the difference. It is bound with GBC plastic combs so that it will lay flat. If you would like I can, rather than bind with the plastic comb, three hole punch it for your binder. Format is 8.5 x 11. 359 Pages. If you are collecting military manuals or looking for a prop to display at your next show, this is not the manual you want. If you want some usable information on American Half-Tracks used during WWII that will lay flat on your bench when you are working on your pride and joy or some period information on how it was done back Seventy years ago while you curl up in front of the fire this winter, this is the one you need.
