I expect that would depend on what printing it is. I know it was in print up to the early 70's 'cause that's when my mom got me one for either xmass or bday. (Highliners, Highball, High Iron, Trains in Transition, Mixed Train Daily... Mom killed off a lot of gift occasions with Beebe back then) IIRC, she was getting 'em from a closeout flyer so they must have just been going out of print in(let me check)'74-'75. Always seem to see at least one of them in the larger used book stores I visit when travelling.
Great pictures in all of 'em tho. And interesting in some of the older ones when Lucius *isn't* in puesdo-arachaic folksy-story mode.
