Lately we have been getting an increasing number of emails and phone calls from people looking for copies of our out-of-print patterns. While some items from the backlist will never sell well enough to justify doing a reprint on them, it seems that more than a few people still want copies.
What would all of you think if we were to release some out-of-print patterns as digital downloads? The idea would go something like this. You would purchase the pattern from the Oliver + S website. We would send you a PDF by email. You would then have to print the instructions and pattern pages on standard letter-sized paper (the complete package may run to 40-50 pages) and tile the pattern sheet together.
If there's enough interest in this, we may try it for one of our out-of-print styles (like the Puppet Show) to see if people feel like the model works for them.
