You can find it at

I'll post up a tiff later (Flickr decided to convert to jpeg, even
though I told it not too- still the resolution is enough to overcome
that anyway. I'm afraid my copy is rather "Well loved", and as a
result it may not be up to your requirements.

Had a look, my comments are in the ring-bound version that I wasn't
able to lay my hands on. from memory, the main errors lay in some
supposedly unused ZP memory locations that actually WERE used.

My C64 bible was the "Commodore64 whole Memory Guide". The only
reference copy I can find is at
http://www.amazon.com/Tim-Arnot/e/B00CTN47CS/ref=ntt_dp_epwbk_0 .
Little more than a bound fixed-pitch dot-matrix printout, it was a
dry, raw, detailed & annotated description & disassembly of every
memory location & register in the C64. a PRG on steroids, so to speak.
Since it seems rare as rocking-horse crap - any suggestions on how I
might go about scanning it?

Julian
