And a scarcity of others from the ’30s?  Had been looking for a ’36, because it’s the first year to include the M. 70.  (I think.)  Already have the ’33.

Didn’t find the original I was looking for, or any others from the same general period, but ran across this exceptionally well-done, & reasonably priced, repro, which with some artificial aging could almost pass for an original:  https://www.ebay.com/itm/Winchester-1925-Worlds-Standard-Guns-and-Ammunition-Catalog-No-83/263732196010?_trkparms=aid%3D777003%26algo%3DDISCL.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D52569%26meid%3D1c94ada88ab749c88601ed045b341007%26pid%3D100012%26rk%3D6%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D252001251940%26itm%3D263732196010&_trksid=p2047675.c100012.m1985

Sure makes all those Cornell reprints look like trash.
