Just found last night a tr4a owners manual that a guy bought new and had put it away in a file, never opened it, it has a supplement / separate book the same size inside it thats just for carbs.
I was planning to purchase a reproduction one and was jumping with excitement to have found this.
 
Excellent! Always good to find the original material - I'm curious if that supplement on carbs also talks about Spitfires - Randall Young tracked down the carb writeup for me for the HS6 carbs, it talked of both cars with additional information on emmission equipment. Maybe its the same thing? Its not that common, I know that.
 
I noticed an insert in my TR4A owner's manual as well, but didn't pay any attention at the time. It's in the pile to be scanned RealSoonNow.
 
Good on you to find such a nice find.
In the same thought on books, I have the blue Haynes Weber /Stromberg manual that I don't need. It's in fair shape. Looks like it got a little damp but none of the pages are torn.In fact I don't think I ever even cracked it open.
Don't even know if I got it new.

Richard and Randall,

I'd be interested in what's in the supplement as well.

Oops, my mistake. The supplement I saw was in the Spit Mk3 owner's manual, not TR4A.
Just some extra details concerning the emissions, dual brake system, PDWA, etc.

as soon as I get it I will take a look and if its of interest I will scan it if it doesn't have some long term copyright on it.
