Yes it did - it had a really quite fancy (for 1990) cgi flight over Atlanta highlighting the venues etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found it years ago...the media file is out of date though and I don't know how to convert it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympic Fan Darcy Posted April 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympic Fan Darcy Posted April 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 Has anyone added any new bid books to their collection in the last year or two? I got a fantastic London 2012 set a couple months back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatsnotmypuppy Posted April 28, 2019 Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 I've been painstakingly gathering the IOC evaluation reports - I'm more of a fan of the failed dreams than the end result these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympic Fan Darcy Posted April 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 Thought i'd pop back in on this site, see if anyone's added any bid books to their collection of late? There's a few floating around on ebay for a good price. NYC 2012 for $100 https://www.ebay.com/itm/New-York-City-2012-Olympic-Bid-Official-Candidate-Bid-to-the-IOC/174253339637?hash=item28924ef3f5:g:or0AAOSwK05emRGw Berlin 2000 currently at around $40 https://www.ebay.com/itm/Olympic-Games-2000-Bid-Book-BERLIN/164161100215?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160811114145%26meid%3D64971fee9bad40168ee988851806b115%26pid%3D100667%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D8%26mehot%3Dnone%26sd%3D164161100215%26itm%3D164161100215%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2334524&_trksid=p2334524.c100667.m2042 And then you've got the Atlanta 1996 set listed at $4800... think i'm happy I got my Atlanta set for around $350. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1996-Atlanta-Olympics-Signed-Proposal-Bidding-Books/164161462267?hash=item2638c91ffb:g:MBIAAOSwr2delluk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktoles Posted May 30, 2020 Report Share Posted May 30, 2020 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olympic Fan Darcy Posted August 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2020 After 7+ years of searching I am now finally the owner of a Brisbane 1992 Olympic bid book set. Very happy and it's in perfect condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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?

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.
