Lunch-break research report.
- Deutsche Nationalbibliothek: Band I, yes. Band II, nothing.
- WorldCat: Band I in eleven libraries worldwide (one in Ohio, for some reason). Band II, nothing.
- ZVAB / AbeBooks: nobody selling either.
- The publisher: Akademie-Fachverlag was swallowed after 1990 by a bigger publisher, which was swallowed by an even bigger one. I sent a polite email to their "rights and archives" address. I expect a polite nothing back.
Also: I found a mistake in Band I. Page 117 is an exact copy of page 31. Every digit, all 250 blocks. I only noticed because my Python test flagged a duplicate run.
Probably a typesetting error, someone reused a plate. Funny mistake to make in a book of random numbers.
I looked for an erratum slip. There isn't one.
