Hi Bernd

>But Martin is right with regard to Rolf W.Buehler's: Meteorite - Urmaterie
aus dem interplanetaren Raum, 1988. It is the only comprehensive book on
meteorites in German that can compare with O.R. Norton's books.<

As for out of print books you are correct Rolf's book is excellent. I just wished the pictures were in color. I'm sure due to the cost of color though it would be a very expensive book. It is quite a long (Wide) book and would not fit on my existing book shelf so I had to by a new deeper bookcase for it. Made the book more expensive than I planned on.

>F. Heide, Kleine Meteoritenkunde, 3rd edn., 1988, pp. 188.*

 Is this one still in print?

>and, of course, Dieter's recent booklet on the Neuschwanstein meteorite:<

I also have this one "Thanks Dieter" and I would recommend it to any even if you can't read German.
