The famous Memorabilia chapter includes crisp reproductions of pages from the vintage Selmer catalogs (the UK's Hofner distributors); a guide to dating Hofner guitars; and a wonderfully insightful interview with Christian Benker, the company's former managing director.A new section features a company history and a listing with selected photos of Hofner guitars from the '60s to the present.
