Does anyone know where the Mikhashoff-Puccini "O mio babbino caro" can be found?

Would really appreciate any answers -- thanks!

No amount of how-to information is going to work if you have the wrong mindset, the wrong guiding philosophies. Avoid losers like the plague, and gather with and learn from winners only.

Actually it's part of his Portrait of Madame Butterfly.

It's published by Edition Peters, but you should note that it is in fact a printed manuscript, not typeset.

You can get it, inter alia, here. You can also check out the "quality" of the score there. It's really lovely, but I found it rather difficult to read. If you plan on learning/memorising it that will be less of an issue.

The Trittico Fantasy is worth checking out - also published by Peters but in this case actually typeset.

O mio babbino caro, from Gianni Schicchi.

For some reason I always put that aria in the wrong opera.  :-[

You are correct, and I'm embarrassed.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention - didn't know about it at all. May have to order a copy!
