The green jacket Adam pictures looks like a 550 PARTS book, an item I have been told does not exist. If there is such a thing, I would dearly love to acquire a copy. I want the information, no interest in it's "collectablity".

Definitely an RS60 owner's manual. Green cover was the English language version and white the was the German language version.

Re: RS60 Parts Book
I have only seen drivers manuals without a jacket, with the typical red type color of many factory low volume documents. What Adam showed had the numerical dividers only used with parts books. I now believe that the jacket and dividers have nothing to do with each other, and there is no such thing as a 550 PARTS book. I remember Gerhardt Weitzmann looking through a hand written loose leaf book for part numbers.
