1969 Dealer Album
Well, I was surfing the national yard sell known as Ebay over the weekend, searching for that ever elusive item that I don't really need and I ran across a 1969 Oldsmobile Dealer Album. This is the album the salesmen on the showroom floor used to show paint and interior options. It even has fabric samples. Way cool!
I won! So it's now mine.
It'll make a great addition to my 69 Cutlass S trunk display.
I'll post pictures once it arrives.

Be very careful with that and do NOT leave it unattended in your trunk. Hate to say it, but I know of numerous 64-72 C&F and Product Selling Info albums that sprouted legs while their owners were not at their vehicle. And yes, that has happened at Olds National Meets. These books are expensive and I guess just too tempting for common-*** rogues.

Pretty neat score there 
To me it's all cool and interesting but the best part is, if it has any is the dealer bulletins. The one from the '75 book I have came with a few bulletins. The best one being about rumors about catalytic convertors causing more fires than any pre- '75 models that didn't have catalytic convertors and the "rotten egg" smell sometimes emitted from catalytic convertors.

Those are usually in a separate binder "Service Guilds and Technical Bulletins". I was fortunate to get many years SG/TB from the Charlotte NC Zone Service office when it closed. Invaluable info in those things.

I got my 1969 dealer album and Wow! It's really neat! I also started looking for the Service Guides and Technical Bulletins that were mentioned earlier. I already found and purchased a binder with the 1971 model year guides and bulletins. I am going to try to pick up the 1970 and 1972 Bulletins as well.
