I've got at least 4.  An early (1980 something) blue printing on white
paper, (not a whole lotta pages) catalogue with mostly all their (limited
at the time) product line, then the "factory parts manual reprint" blue
Spitfire line artwork similar to the Haynes cutaway drawings, white cover,
Spitfire MK4/1500 (also a GT6 catalog of the same type), the later yellow
colored cover, 1500 catalogue, which is basically the same as the previous
mentioned catalog with a few additional items added, and the MK1/2/3 glove
box companion catalog - plus the official factory service manual (with
parts) for the Spitfire MKIII, blue cover and the GT6, red cover reprints.
The last two were NOT TRF catalog's but reprints of the service manuals,
but they list ALL the part numbers, as well as detailed diagrams for all
the various assembles.   So yes, they do have Spitfire, as well as GT6
catalogs.
