Cat, congratulations on acquiring that beauty. It's a gorgeous copy. I really would love to learn more about it's provenance. We've talked about it before and I've looked around but can't seem to find anything. Do you notice many similarities between this one an your other ERB copy?
[font:Times New Roman]Just one noteworthy one, but it's fascinating. Here is my under copy...
Notice the tiny yellow spot directly under the "H" of Hitler that isn't filled in on the black shadow of both copies, then look at other copies of this title. I'm inclined to believe that there was a fleck of ink that failed to cover one specific spot during this part of the run. You can clearly see it on these, but not on most other copies. Maybe there's a logical reason for this phenomenon other than the likelihood that these copies came from the same limited run of books, but if so, I haven't figured it out yet[/font].
What is the story behind the R. Cat Conrad collection? I googled him and see he is an artist, anyone have anymore info?
