Some of the years are missing from the Carver files but they are still a great source of info. I have an almost a full set of original brochures , many that Carver do not have themselves and many I got from Carver some time back, covering from when the first one was produced in 1956 to 2009. I am only missing three. Some year two or thee versions were produced. I give a DVD or CD free with all these on it with every Carver Mariner CD and DVD I sell. As to the value , they are only worth what you are prepared to pay for then although some of my early ones I paid up to 30 - 50 dollars each depending on the condition and rarity. Its a great way to see the changes in the boats and the company over the years.
