HeelSpur, I just tried it and it seemed to be OK.  Pictures and descriptions all came up fine.

All I get is "OOPS, page not found".

I have it on "favorites" guess I'll have to try typing it in.

Got it, the site has changed. No more catalog down loads?

Looks like she has indeed eliminated the catalog downloads.  I poked around a little and couldn't find any.  Is there one you are looking for?  I have a bunch of them that I have saved over the years.  Would be glad to email it to you if I have it.

Yes, I'm looking for any Crescent downloads. The link Rusty added works fine.

The nice thing about "archive.org" is they copy & store on their own servers the web sites they are archiving.   As long as the file was part of that copy, it should remain viable "forever." 

If you look at the earliest version of mvwc.org saved by archive.org, you'll see a church web site.  When that church let their domain name registration lapse, I claimed mvwc.org for the Missouri Valley Wrench Club.  Although I'm woefully behind the times doing anything with it, I've made sure the club "owns" that url.
