This is waaaay more than I know already. Thanks for the education...
There are some limited edition books that are created in Japan, so hard to get ahold of for me but the pages look like this and are an amazing reference for most LV as far back as the launch of the Keepall.

Ohhh myyy I have been looking for a catalog of the Epi pieces like this since forever! Do you have more photos of the pages? Thanks for sharing!

I found them on an old thread, wish we had the actual books to scan and obsess over. :P

I am in awe of your knowledge, gaston. And I've always loved the name gaston :)
 
Wow, I am looking at this thread as I am starting to get into the Epi line myself and realize that this is an older thread. Is there a list updated to 2013? I think it would also be good to compile the dates for each. And then there are the two hardware types too (gold, silver)
 
Cassis? If I could get my hands on the current book I would scan them up! Trying to convince someone in Tokyo to find me one is not easy!

I have all of these books and in all the various years/versions! Let me know if you need me to scan any pictures.
