Full title is "Descriptive catalogue of the collection of Tarentine coins formed by M. P. Vlasto".  Oscar Ravel is the author.  Published in 1947, reprinted in 1977 by Obol.

A copy sold on eBay recently but I can't find it now.  Even the reprint sells for $75-$150 and is VERY SCARCE.  My advice is to join the ANA and borrow the reprint from their library and xerox it. [ http://www.money.org/library/libcat2.html ].

Sanford J. Durst recently acquired Obol but I don't believe they had any copies left for him to sell.  You could call him.  Otherwise send email to the usual suspects (Kolbe and Charles Davis) and ask them to let you know if one comes up for auction.
