It would be good to have at least a color scan of the cover.

Hmmm............OK, so YORF is not uploading the Excel file for me. PM me if you are interested in obtaining the file and I will email it to you. Incidentally, there were 20 such catalogs from Estes, 8 from Centuri.

Here is the catalog listing Joe was trying to upload. The problem was my old software wasn't configured to accept docx or xlsx files, just the old doc and xls. I've corrected that so there should not be a problem anymore uploading those types of files in the future.

I have another one but the scan is over the size limit. I tried a PDF Resizer program but it came out larger. Here is the cover.

I remember getting the Fireflash and a few packs of mini motors out of this sales catalog.

I should have every one of the Centuri-issued sales catalogs. They put out a good handful of them (as mentioned earlier in this thread) during the late 70s and early 80s. They had close out sales on a great many of their kits especially in the early 80s. I guess that was part of the writing on the wall that the Centuri line was short for this world, but I?m not sure many of us realized it at the time.

Since there are now Centuri catalogs in this thread I've edited the title and moved the thread to the Publications forum.
