Just an FYI to interested parties. The Marcher Apple Network (MAN) from the UK is organizing the production of a CD-ROM featuring the color plates and descriptions from the Herefordshire Pomona. Expected cost of the CD-ROM with shipping to the USA will be $30 US. This is likely going to be an excellent opportunity for those of us who are not independently wealthy to obtain a copy of this invaluable resource.
I have included text from Andrew Lea's email about the subject, which is taken from the Marcher apple Network:
"There is a copy of the "flyer" describing the project at http://www.marcherapple.net/pomona.htm
where order forms can be downloaded. I expect to load an example of part of a plate and the corresponding description in a couple of weeks' time. This will allow anybody interested in a copy of the CD to get a preview of what will be available. It will also allow anybody with less usual operating systems and/ or browsers to check that they will have no problems accessing the data on the CD. (The plates and descriptions will be set up as a website on the CD so there will be no need to install any software on purchaser's computers)"
