I suggest you contact Tod, he may know. The book was published in '82, two years after Chet died. His daughters Ashlee and Regina were seeking info some years ago as their mother received something about the book which they found in her papers after she died. Don't know how that all turned out. I have not yet found my copy after the move.

Several months ago I saw one for sale on Ebay.

I might have an extra one, I will have to check on that and get back to you.

I did some checking down at the American Sign Book Library...and yes, I indeed have two.

And no, none of them are cheap.

Let the bidding begin.
