An offline email I received also pointed me to this IBM documentation portal:

https://www.ibm.com/resources/publications

Where search term "VS PASCAL" gets you to all but one of the program product VS 
Pascal manuals (the licensed material manual "VS PASCAL DIAGNOSIS GUIDE AND 
REFERENCE" is listed on the IBM site but is not available for download).

Interestingly, the IBM portal downloads appear to be OCR-scanned copies like 
those at bitsavers.org rather than PDF's constructed from the original paper 
documentation sources.

Thanks to all for your help.

Peter
