I apologize in advance if this type of post is against forum rules, but I couldn't think of a better way to offer this item to a group of people that might be interested in preserving in it. I was cleaning the basement and found an original Finale Version 2 (Windows) box complete with manuals and floppy discs. I really don't have a good space for this item, but I thought someone here might be interested in having it?

The box is in good shape and includes:
- Finale Startup Guide
- Finale Update Guide
- Manual - Volume I: Learning Finale
- Manual - Volume II: Finale Encyclopedia
- Manual - Volume III: Finale Reference
- Quick Reference Card
- Installation Discs

This does not include a serial number - there's no transfer of license or anything like that taking place - just offering the physical media in the hopes of finding someone interested in preserving a bit of music tech history.

If you're interested and willing to cover the cost of delivery, please message me directly to work out the details. Thanks!

Very cool indeed. I still have my Finale (Mac) 3.2 box with the manuals by David Pogue. I just can’t part with them.

This will probably make me look like a heretic, but in 2012 when I was moving from Illinois, I decided that the Coda disks and manuals were not going to make the trip with me, so they got tossed in the bonfire.
