Did they purposefully name it after Václav Havel's 1997 book? (Which probably was influenced by Otto von Bismarck...)

I'm hinting for a Christmas present! I think they've taken the bait. 300 colour pictures - sounds good.

What a pity it's only in english. Sad

I have the "From Spark to Icon" book, and it was translated into French.

I keep meaning to get the Spark to Icon book; will this supersede it or do I need two books now?!

Get the 2! Big Smile

I think the new 90th anniversary book is focused on the design story of the brand.

"From Spark to Icon" is about the history of the company.

Hey, Mr Anderson, please post photos of the inside of the book ! Yes - thumbs up

An excellent mix of old and modern equipment, how, where and even who made it. Hard to explain but very simple in its delivery with large bold beautiful pictures, backed up with just the right amount of technical detail.

Advertising department take note

I have my book since 4 days and found a big mistake on page 56.

They write that we see on page 58-59 a MCP 7000

That is wrong, because there  are pictures from a MCP 5000 open/closed  Surprise

??? Aren't there always some on German fleaBay? I've bought two and I don't think either of them was more than 40 euros (+ postage).

Anyway, I went shopping the old fashioned way today. Lovely book - I wouldn't have minded a bit more textual content, but this is still a must have!
