Recently I had the good fortune to stumble across an original copy of Sandra Myres' biography of Tio Sam Myres -- then discovered it is even signed! And being a Master's thesis for a Texas university, it's full-sized and about 1/2" thick. Unlike the copy that I've read on the internet, this original has many photographs and is complete with footnotes to original interviews with the surviving Myres family members. Here's a pair of pics; it bears no copyright notice and copyright law then means that, because of its date, it can be reproduced legally. I mean to make reproductions available, to more accurately preserve history, because my own Master's thesis on the U.S. Holster Industry circa 1989, I'm told by my university is lost to time. Shame, it was a snapshot of a very different set of players than we have today.
