"Jacket photograph of Fancy by William J. Book" The text states that Book was the owner. It was built by Ernest Tarr of Gloucester.
The article is six pages with several drawings. Likely not your boat on the cover, unless Mr Tarr moved to the left coast. In any event you should buy the book to read what Phil says about Fancy.

30 Odd Boats for sale on Ebay right now $19.99 "Buy It Now"

This is not my add but this is a good price.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/30-ODD-BOATS-HARDCOVER-PHILLIP-C-BOLGER-/120841070695?pt=Antiquarian_Collectible&hash=item1c22b06867#ht_500wt_990
If you guys havn't already tried, you might look on half.com It is owned by
E-bay but is not an auction. I ran into a copy of different boats there for
$8.00 a few
months ago.
You can find good buys on all kinds of things there.
No, I don't own stock in it, it has just come in handy
a couple of times.

Thanks Norm,

Good link. I've just ordered a copy of "Different Boats" from them.
If I get 30 Odd on the ebay auction, I'll have the whole set. Then
I'll never get to sleep.

If you miss at eBay, tryhttp://www.abebooks.com(ABE books...Amazon-esque
approach to 2nd hand books...links sellers thru their search engine)

Just searched there, and found 7 copies, starting @ US$35....have gotten
most of my Bolgeriana from them....all sellers I've been steered to by ABE
have been 4-star for me...

Yours in Bolger,
Norm

Thanks Guys!

That's right, It was called "Bolger Boats" and I've got a copy at
home.

Now I'm free to go bid HUGE big US bucks bought with my tiny,
valueless Canadian Dollarettes to get a copy of 30 Odd on eBay.
Everyone else can just stop bidding, I'll set my top bid SOOOOOO....
high that you'd have to pay a million to steal it out from under my
steely grasp. (nefarious tactic to help me get it on the cheap... )

Nyahh, Nyahh, Nyahh!

Thanks.

The combo was "Folding Schooner" and "Small Boats" and I believe it was
called "Bolger Boats".

Is 30 ODD Boats one of the two books paired with The Folding Schooner
into a double, the name of which eludes me, or is it a stand alone
volume.

I ask because whichever one is combined I have. It's coming to me
now, I think Small Boats and The Folding Schooner were the ones
resold as a double. Is that correct.
Or am I mistaken.

Bruce Hector
I think that it was 30 Odd boats and the Folding Scooner that were paired.
I have a copy at home.
