I began converting WWII military manuals into PDF files in 2004. What started out a hobby has turned into a successful eBay business. I primarily concentrate on WWII manuals, but I occasionally do manuals from other eras. The digital images and PDF files I created are copyrighted by ohiocountryboy0, All Rights Reserved.
In 2008, I put up a small greenhouse and started growing heirloom seeds on the family farm too. I am primarily concentrating on heirloom tomatoes, but will also offer other varieties as time goes on. Keep checking back to see what new seeds you can get for your garden.
Many people don't realize that all government documents, including military manuals, are public domain. Anyone can legally reproduce them. However, when public domain information is changed into a different format, such as converting an original printed manual into a digital format PDF file, that change in format is copyrighted. While the information contained in the original printed manual is public domain, the digital images and PDF file itself are copyrighted, and it is illegal to make or sell duplicate copies of the files I have created and own rights to.
To date I have converted over 60 US Government manuals to digital format. I hold copyrights to these digitized legal reproductions. All rights reserved. I auction these CD manuals individually, or in sets on eBay. Please check my listings.
