There used to be a hardback book available from Ferrari UK, don't know if it's still available.

Ah brilliant, I can always keep an eye out for it on Ebay or something like that with a name or author of it !

Might be a bit of fan boy thing to have but hell I am a total fan of it !
(perhaps obsessed would be more fitting)
I've never even seen one in the metal

I have the F50 book, and it's a gorgeous book produced and published by Ferrari, I would be sad to part with it, but for the right price, I would be prepared to let it go.

They do come up on Ebay sometimes for around £300. Alex Reade Motorsport shop in London has one that is signed by the Ferrari team, its up for £1100

I could email you a couple of pics of mine if you like?

There are three books that I know of specifically on the F50 besides the factory brochure:
Autocar did a special supplement when the car came out.
Italian publisher Automobilia did one in their Great Cars series (edited by Ippolito Alfieri). These are tri-lingual (Italian/English/French).
There is also a big slipcased german book by Schruf.
