Don't know exactly what you mean by "real". I bought it in 1967.

POP was a subset of the "red book" .. which was possibly twice as large as POP
.. with POP as subset section within the red book. It was implemented in gml (starting
1971?; precursor to sgml and html)
and conditional was printed/displayed either the "full" red book ... or just the
POP portions. red book tended to have unannounced instructions as well as lot of
architectural and engineering
justifications for instructions.
