BAYKO Sets #0 to #3 Instruction Manual -
1948 Later Version

In 1948 Plimpton introduced set #3 to extend the range of BAYKO sets that were available. Initially they added a set #3 manual to support the launch. This manual was issued late in 1948 as the second version of the manual which consolidated details of the standard sets with examples of the usage of the new parts, hoping, no doubt, to prise the pocket money from young post-war modellers!
The manual incorporated the entire earlier 6 page leaflet, which first announced these new parts.
There is no print code, so the exact date is unknown - at least by me - but this is the later version, from late in 1948.
The manual was printed by J.H. Leeman Ltd., Leighton Printing Works, Neston, Wirral. It has a full colour front cover printed on thin, white card, the rest of the 40 pages are printed in red, green and black on matt, off-white paper.
The first 6 pages, identified by roman numerals, contain general information…
…and the last 6 pages are a straight copy of the earlier, 6 page leaflet.
This is one of the first six pages, so the above comment also applies.  In addition there is a small change in the script below the right hand table.  The legend now reads “LONGER RODS CAN BE SUPPLIED TO ORDER”, whereas the earlier edition referred to “LARGER RODS”.
The 5 images below, highlighted in pink, are the other 5 pages which are different in the 2 manuals.

Size - 250mm x 185mm = 9.8 x 7.3 inches.
