It's available for free download from the Apple archives. They only have the
latest version. The disks are Mac DiskCopy images, so you need a Mac and
DiskCopy (also a free download) to make the images into usable floppies.
Since the disks are 800K ProDos disks, you need a Mac with an OS and floppy
drive that is compatible. Macs from the early to mid 90's had SuperDrive
floppies that work. Later Power Macs had the manual inject drives that can't
make a bootable 800K ProDos disk.
Good luck!
