Perhaps you have time in a week or two or so?  At least you have
time to spend on Usenet.... :-)

If no-one ever "have the time", it won't be done....

If so, the hardware and the tapes are in effect already damaged, since
they're considered unusable....

No books from Apple ever contained a disassembly of Integer Basic.
However, it should be quite easy to obtain one from the Apple
monitor.  And if the output is "piped" through, say, a serial port
(by e.g. a "Ctrl-P 2" monitor command), it can easily be captured by
another computer.  This can of course also be done in an emulator.
