help with storage unit find

Hey everyone i recently bought a storage unit full of sports collectibles and 1 thing that really interested me was what seems to be a bid or proposal book written by the rose bowl / city of pasadena to try to land superbowl xxvii. It was written in 1991 to try to get the 1993 superbowl. It has reasons they should choose rose bowl, nfl requirememts, illustrations, enticements, vip parties and all sorts of information. I cant find anything like it on ebay or google at all. I was wondering if anyone knows anything or has seen something like this.

    First off, "Welcome to the Jungle". I am not familiar with the item you are talking about; but having said that, the members on the boards here are a huge wealth of knowledge on many subjects. They are always willing to provide comments, both positive, negative, and constructive. Good luck on your quest.

    Sounds like a cool piece. Did you take any pics to share?

    Super Bowl XXVII, Dallas Cowboys vs Bills. If you plan on selling it, maybe put it on ebay with a high bin and market it towards the two teams that participated. You may get a die hard fan of one of the teams to hit it.

    First post your pictures to a site like Photobucket or Tinypic. Then copy and paste the code into your thread.

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    I would contact the local gov't adm. planning office at the Pasadena City Hall,Local politicians whom may have been in office at the time. Nothing like that plan would go through without the politicians involved. Also you could try their local Historical Society. Good Luck and let us know what you discover.

    Interested in the hockey, when you're able to sift through it please let me know what you have available.

    If there are any old books in there I'd be interested in those as well.

    Best!

    My two cents, there has to be somebody who would pay $200ish for it. I'd put in on eBay at $500 BIN w/best offer.
