It depends on what model you have. I assume (from your email address)
you're in the UK? If so, I'd guess you have either an Apple ][ Europlus,
or perhaps an Apple //e.

I can copy you a DOS 3.3 system master (if you have a Europlus, you'd need
to have P5A and P6A PROMs in your Disk ][ card, for 16-sector disks). I
might have a DOS 3.2 system master (13 sector) if you only have P5/P6
PROMs, but the A versions are more common. I also have quite a lot of
games, a few utilities like Kermit, miniassembler, etc, and some digitised
pictures. However, some of the games need Integer BASIC, so you'd need a
language card to run those ones.

I also have a few ProDOS 1.1.1 disks, but they only work on a //e.

Old driver disks for PCs, old magazine disks, etc. But make sure they're
single or double density (48 tpi or 96tpi), NOT HD (High Density) disks.
 Either single or double sided is fine for an Apple ][.
