Didn't the video also show Atlanta's stadium proposal and athletes village via late 21st century cgi?

Yes it did - it had a really quite fancy (for 1990) cgi flight over Atlanta highlighting the venues etc.

I think I have the video saved on my google drive. I found it years ago...the media file is out of date though and I don't know how to convert it.

Not sure if anyone is still around on this forum but just saw this pop up on eBay, I already have a set but thought someone here might be of interest! It's the Toronto 2008 Bid Book Set. It looks like it's missing the top part of the steel briefcase but still looks decent.

Does anyone know if there is still an actual digital copy of the Vancouver 2010 Bid Books? The ones I had saved were on hard drives that are now gone. I found a scanned copy of the actual bid book but I'm hoping someone has an actual PDF digital copy that they could send me? If they have a link or can email me a copy please let me know. @intoronto do you still have a copy? Thank You.

Anyone got any new acquisitions? I've got this on the way from Agon Sportsworld.

Looks epic, definitely have to post some pics when it arrives. 

 

I've been adding quite a bit over recent years. The best being Brisbane 1992, Atlanta 1996 and London 2012. A few others. You?

Yes I've got an Atlanta 1996 set too.

Most recently it was Vancouver 2010 (but not in the wooden presentation case).

Incidentally, as part of the Agon buy, I got an Albertville 1992 set, but in French.

Hi everyone.  I have a copy of the 2001 NYC2012 bid book (submitted as part of the bid for the USOC nod) that I'm looking to sell. The pages themselves are in near perfect shape, exterior case is a little worn but mostly fine. It's my understanding that is is pretty rare. I'm planning on listing on Ebay shortly but figured I'd also post here. Is anyone interested in purchasing?

Haven't been on the forums in ages. Just acquired my first bid book: a Calgary 88. Showed up at a Goodwill for $20, however with a couple other books, a music CD and a stamp card for $15 off purchases over $25, I got all four items for $11.50. Didn't realize how big these books were. It's not super thick but about the size of a medium to large pizza box. Anyone know how much the Calgary bid book goes for? Seems like there is a wide range for this one.
