ALL INFO ON DC COMICS STYLE GUIDE BELOW:
I have spent the last few years discovering everything there is to know about this guide...
No Guide has ever been sold with all the pages in it. In 1982, a complete guide back then only had 116 - 128 pages.
Later, more pages were added for the newer released of the same guide.
Most guides that have been sold have missing pages and parts of the logos and or characters actually cut out of the pages, so there are missing areas to some of the pages and some have water damage.
____________________________________________________________________________
If you combine ALL the different and variations of art from the 1982-1989 Guides,
then there are 199 images in total from all the guides combined showing different or variation art. (Not including index type and Tabs/Dividers)

Most guides never came with all the art, so the average guide should have 116 to 128 images in the 1982 edition.
It is unclear how many pages were included in the later editions, but it was at least that amount if not more.

Sometimes the Guides came with a Letter from DC Comics explaining what it is.

I've seen a white cover for the 2011 edition of the 1982 guide as well but I have not seen inside it. Even to this day, they still print Lopez's art on T-Shirts.
____________________________________________________________________________
The guide was produced as model sheets for artists as well as for Licensees to use the art for clothes, Lunch Boxes, cups, Trading cards, sticker books, Super Powers Action Figures and book bags to name a few, etc.
The Guide was NEVER released to the public so most people don't even know it exists except a few thousand collectors and the fan of Mr. Lopez as seen on Facebook.

Note: Though most of the Art was drawn almost all by Mr. Lopez, for some of the newer added art to the later guides,
Other artists contributed trying to keep the same look, but is obvious to most not drawn as well as Lopez's art.

Hello , yes my friend only has 1 DVD left of the original DC Comics Style Guide art, even the printed guide is gone. If you wanted the DVD he will sell you his last one which has all of the artwork compiled from all the guides from 1982. -1989 from the DC Comics Style Guide drawn by Jose Luis Garcia Lopez, all scanned in super high resolution 300 DPI for $199.

But he keeps track of each person he sells the DVD to because he's one of the representatives for the jose louise garcia lopez fansite, so you must first agree not to sell or upload any pictures to the Internet from the DVD if he sells it to you, do you agree?
