To all:

The manual is now available for download HERE:
http://bama.edebris.com/download/military/r390/Collins_R390_1953.pdf

Do not expect a perfect result, however.
But it is better than nothing...
I do not own the proper software(s) to "restore" such documents, but I know
from experience that this is possible.
If ever anyone else can provide a better copy (from an original, say...) it
will be welcome.
Some people asked me why I did not scanned only the sections that were
different from the TM11-856.
My answer is that the Collins First Manual, despite being less extensive
than the more recent R-390/URR manual versions, nevertheless have an
historical value.
Some information within cannot be found in the following versions, like the
original Collins Parts List, for example.

Take care.

73, Jacques, VE2JFE in Montreal
