Is it a Pedigree? Obscure markings? Ask the "Experts" 5 5

Roger that. Thank you both! I appreciate your time. I assumed it was just typical GA markings but figured I’d check here.

I couldnt find a scan of my copy of Mysterious Traveler so I searched my computer and found the pic and an email that stated it was a Crippen book. Can anyone verify this?

I guess that settles it! 

Thank you!

It should have come with a certificate signed by Lon Allen, and he'd probably be willing to help out if you need another one.

I’m going to dig it out tonight to look. I think I just may have forgotten about it!

And it just might have that pencil code on the top of the first page…

Found it! Here’s a better scan and a signed cert by Lon. Totally forgot about this one!

Cool! I love the codes especially since it was broken. They aren’t on all of them though.

A while ago, I picked up an unoted Crippen from Harley at a show. I wanted it either way. But before I bought it, I did the usual look through and page count as I always do. And there it was. No COA though.

Nice book by the way. One that has always eluded me…
