Looks like an awesome find! There should be a manual on every style like that! Good Luck with it.

I was going to bid on it too but it was a little too rich for my bllood. Also, I can't read chinese and I dont know anyone that is near me to help with translation.

I did of course bid on the HB Un Bak Mei. It wasn't that good.

Hi,

I don't think the book is rare, but just new instead. Looking at the cover I wonder if I would classify it as "traditional" Pak Mei (if even that exists) or if it had influences from other styles.

It doesn't seem to be the only new book. I also got this link :http://yap.myzen.co.uk/shop/product_info.php?products_id=1528&osCsid=fbf32011404d2c252b7ba8b73ccf8ee0 But the shop owner doesn't have the book yet.

Regards, Lau

I had the same feeling....just waiting to see what was up. I noticed it seems to combine some of the older forms with some of the 5 and 6th generation authored forms as well.
