If you don't mind a reprint, there's one on ebay -

It seems like there was someone who made a CD of all the different Henry J manuals and you could buy from him and print the pages yourself.

If we both live long enough I will get my manual collection scanned.  I am scanning the manuals so I can store them on my computer to have them with me when I travel.  Doing the manuals required for my 53K first.  So far only the General information through Section 9-Transmissions and Controls have been scanned but stay tuned.

Sad the first manual I am working on is the one is the 1951 Parts Manual not the Shop Manual that you are looking for. And it has to be rescanned do to the way it is printing in my tests.   Be forewarned that the first 15 pages are over a 10 MB file.  If you have a great internet connection play on.

The problem of file size so it can be read and the detail in the illustrations can be seen clearly.  The last time I tried copying my paperwork (confidential bulletins, P&A items, etc) was in 2003.  It took 10 CD's and dots-per-inch (DPI) that I had to use at the time produced somewhat blury pages.

Since then, the overall collection has more than doubled and some items would have to be scanned in color to get the needed detail visible.
