I have a yellow card "Third Edition (March, 1974)" and I still use it. Mostly 
for EBCDIC/ASCII reference and powers of 2 and 16. Occasionally for machine 
instructions but (a.) I know most of the old ones; (b.) there are of course so 
many new ones; and (c.) I don't write a whole lot of assembler anymore. It is 
pre-31-bit and shows EC PSW bits 24 to 39 as hard zeros. 

Would love to see some new reference that was somehow both up-to-date yet 
smaller than a phone book.

lol! 
I still have my yellow card (GX20-1850-5) given to me by my old boss @ Sears :) 

around 1977ish 
and a hard copy of both the TSO/E Extensions Command language Ref summary 
(GX23-0015-0) and Data Facility HSM V2R6.0 SYPROG command Ref summary 
(GX35-5037-6) 
just can't seem to give them up.
