Badly designed brochures/instruction manuals

    I dont know really where to put this, so I will post it generally.

    I am on the look out for badly designed brochures and instruction manuals.

    When I say badly designed, I mean poor or no graphics, bad language, poor meaning, overall unattractiveness of presentation.

    They can be umpteen years old (i.e doesnt matter how old they are).

    If anyone has any lying around, can you please PM me?

    I have been on the look out for the last week or 2 and most people (including myself) have thrown alot of these things out. If anyone has anything you think might be of remote interest, however small, please PM me. I would need to original posted to me, but I can and will post it back to you if you need it back (and reimburse you for the postage cost). You would be helping me out.

    Thanks!

    I don't have anymore, but in a chinese lamp the on/off switch was - in the instructions used for "light on/dark on" and the green/yellow wire needed to be connected to "soil"
