Dear Friends,

We hope that you all had a great weekend. Hopefully you had a chance to spend some quality time with the newest title by Waldemar Trojca, Panther: Bergepanther Ausf. D. All ordered copies have been sent out. Now, we do have a few copies left, and the few that we have left will not stay in stock for long. We do not know when, or if, we can get more, so order today! Okay, on to new business!

Today, we have one book for your consideration, the T-34 Shock: The Soviet Legend in Pictures by Fonthill Media. After taking a quick scan of a copy, we heartily recommend it. A definitely useful facet is that the photos are presented in chronological order.

That’s all for now. We hope that you have a great week. Also, a big thanks to everyone who contacted us and provided us with feedback on the Panther: Bergepanther Ausf. D. We really appreciate and value your comments.

Take care and stay safe,

John & Natalie

Dear Friends,

GREAT NEWS!!! – The newest title by Waldemar Trojca, Panther: Bergepanther Ausf. D, has arrived! That said, we will be busy little bees for the rest of the week! John’s back is not pleased…

We also wanted to note that we received a very limited number of other Trojca titles. They are:

SS-Panzerkorps in the Battle for Kharkov 01-03.1943

The Submarines of the Imperial Japanese Navy and Army 1904 – 1945: Technical and Operational History

Aircraft Carriers of the Imperial Japanese Navy and Army, Vol. 1

Tiger I: Technical and Operational History, Vol. 2

Soviet Union Air Aces, 1941-1945

Due to the higher shipping and a higher exchange for the Euro, prices have increased a bit. Once again, we are going to have to do things on a “first come first serve” basis, so please do not procrastinate in ordering.

We look forward to hearing from you soon!

Take care and stay safe,

John & Natalie

Dear Friends,

We have two titles for you to review this weekend. The first looks like a really interesting title from Helion, Snow, Ice and Sacrifice: The Italian Army in Russia, 1941-1943. This is the first English-language publication to provide an in-depth description of Italian army operations in Russia during the Second World War. Looks pretty cool.

The next title comes from Crecy Publishing in the UK, Junkers Ju 88 Volume 3: Development, Equipment and Operations 1940-1945. Known as the Luftwaffe’s long-serving Schnellbomber (fast bomber), this book tells the story of the Junkers Ju 88 as a day and night-fighter.

**Please be advised that this is a pre-order** Although we do not expect to have this book in before the beginning of July 2023, we do need to know how many of you are interested in a copy as soon as possible. This is because some of the last titles from Crecy Publishing have gone out of print very quickly, so we want to make sure that we order enough copies from our distributor. As per usual, you will not be charged until we ship the book to you, so guarantee your copy by ordering online by end of Wednesday, April 19th! We do not want you to miss out!

Have a great weekend!

John & Natalie

Dear Friends,

Today we have four interesting titles for you to peruse:

A couple of these titles may sell out quickly, so we will be employing a first come, first served policy. We will be placing our order on Monday, April 3rd, so please place your order by end of day, Sunday, April 2nd.

Lastly, just a quick note on sending and receiving emails to us. It seems like the bugs still haven’t been worked out with our server and so sometimes, emails that we send are bounced back. If you are not receiving our email updates or order confirmation details, please check your Spam folder. You can also add jjfpub@jjfpub.mb.ca as a trusted contact. Hopefully, this will solve this minor irritation.

Have a great weekend, and stay tuned for news coming soon on the Panther: Bergepanther Ausf. D title by Waldemar Trojca!

Take care and stay safe,

John & Natalie

Dear Friends,

We hope that you are all enjoying some lovely March weather. We just wanted to provide you with another quick update on the status of Waldemar Trojca’s Panther: Bergepanther Ausf. D. As of today, we expect to have the books in by mid-April, providing that the transportation system doesn’t put us through any additional delays… we hope!

As mentioned in our last couple of updates, besides assembling boxes in anticipation of Trojca’s book, we have been busy with housekeeping duties. As a result, we have a number of damaged JJF titles available for sale.

As some of you may be aware, a colleague of ours in the US has been helping us sell some of these damaged titles. But now, it’s our time!! We are pleased to inform you that we are now offering our own 30% off sale on damaged JJF titles!

These books have some scratches, dents, or a bit of wear on the covers. However, the text block is mint and almost all are still in the original shrink-wrapping. So, if you are looking to save on some really excellent titles, and do not mind a cover with some damage, please visit our website and order today! This sale will be on until end of day, Sunday, March 26th, 2023. **Note** When ordering, please quote “Damaged Books” in the Customer Note section.

Have a fantastic week! We look forward to hearing from you!

Take care and stay safe,

John & Natalie

Dear Friends,

FINALLY! Waldemar Trojca’s Panther: Bergepanther Ausf. D has been shipped and we should have it before the end of March (transportation gods willing!)!waiting Unfortunately, due to the horrific transport costs, worse exchange rate and the higher price we have to pay because the title has grown by 50 pages since we priced it, we have been forced to raise its price to $190.00. If you have not yet ordered one, please be advised that this shipment will probably be sold out right away because any copies not claimed by individuals will be sold to booksellers, leaving none available for later.

** TO THOSE WHO HAVE ALREADY ORDERED THIS TITLE ** – If you wish to cancel your order due to the price increase, please email us (jjfpub@jjfpub.mb.ca) right away and your reserved copy will be assigned to someone else. If we do not hear from you by March 20th, we will assume that you still want your copy. LASTLY, due to the weight of this 8 lb. monster, as we wrote earlier, the shipping cost for this book will be $25.00 (see new shipping policy below for Canadian and remotely located US customers).

Included with Trojca’s Panther D shipment, small quantities of several of his other, previously sold out, titles are also on the way. They will disappear quickly and we cannot guarantee that we will get more in the future. So, if you have them on your wish list, grab them quickly. Please note that due to the reasons we listed above, their prices have also risen. Those titles are listed below.

SS-Panzerkorps in the Battle for Kharkov 01-03.1943

Aircraft Carriers of the Imperial Japanese Navy and Army, Vol. 1

Submarines of the Imperial Japanese Navy and Army 1904 – 1945: Technical and Operational History

Tiger I: Technical and Operational History, Vol. 2

Soviet Union Air Aces, 1941-1945

Tiger Ausf. B Königstiger: Technical and Operational History

** NEW SHIPPING POLICY FOR CANADIAN AND REMOTELY LOCATED US CUSTOMERS **

Despite the quickly rising costs of shipping and packing materials, up until now we have managed to keep the shipping cost steady to US and Canadian customers. However, the cost of shipping to Canadian customers, and US customers located in remote locations such as: Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Alaska and other US territories, has gotten to the point that we cannot absorb them anymore. Please be advised that we will now charge you the actual shipping and packing cost. In some cases, that could be substantial. If you are concerned about the shipping and packing cost, please email us (jjfpub@jjfpub.mb.ca) to request a quote before we proceed with your order. We are happy to offer this option as part of our customer service – we want you to be satisfied with the books and our service!

Well, that’s all for now. We look forward to hearing from you!

Take care and stay safe,

John & Natalie

Dear Friends,

First of all, we are happy to report that we have switched to a new, and better, web hosting company, which means that we can process your orders again! Our server will also be replaced this weekend, which means that we shouldn’t experience lost or bounced back emails either. Thank you for your patience!

Today, we are offering three new titles. these have been ordered and should be arriving in the next 2-3 weeks. Reserve your copies now!

From Schiffer Publishing, we have Vampir: From Teenage Flak Auxiliary to Night-Fighting Machine Gunner in WWII, which offers a rare account of training and combat with “Vampir” infrared-equipped small-arms in WWII.

Next, on the way from Wingleader, we have Nachtjagd Combat Archive: Eastern Front and Mediterranean, which covers the German night fighter operations on both the Eastern and Mediterranean fronts. We also have Air-War 1942: Holding the Line, Part 1 January to April 1942, a blow-by-blow history of the air war over Europe.

Finally, for those of you who ordered U-Bootmänner als Panzerjäger and Elephant Paths: Combat History of Sturmgeschütz-Abteilung 203, both titles were received and the orders have been sent out. We only have 2 copies of each title left for sale, so grab yours today!

DELIVERY UPDATES

As you can probably imagine, holiday season traffic has contributed to transport and delivery delays. As a result, some things are going to be out of our control. However, we assure you that we are trying to navigate these issues to get you your titles as quickly as possible. For those of you waiting for several new titles, here are the latest anticipated delivery dates:

Panther D from Trojca – At this time, the title is almost ready to go to the printer. We anticipate that we will receive it at the beginning of March 2023.

The Army That Got Away – We hope to receive them around December 20th so that we can send them all out before December 24th.

Nuts & Bolts #47 – Same as above. We hope to receive them around December 20th so that we can send them all out before December 24th.

Arado Ar 234 and Dornier Do 217 – The distributor says that they will be receiving them this month. However, with shipping delays and the holidays coming up, we think that (realistically) we should have them before January 15th, 2023.

That’s all that we have for you today. Please note that we will send out more delivery updates as soon as we have more information.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Have a great weekend,

John & Natalie
