Gino, I suppose you know there's art by your favorite, Ramona Patenaude, in this issue.

Got this recently (Did Pons post this book a while ago? Got this from Terry's. Funny how books move around!):

 

Seven%20Seas%203%206%20dot%205001_zpsinub5coh.jpg

 

Which frees this up:

 

Seven%20Seas%203%205%20dot%200002_zpsx0d9yi1r.jpg

 

I find it interesting how badly various critters were rendered in the Golden Age. Seems cephalopods were occasionally especially poorly drawn. Lack of good reference material, eh? We're sure spoiled in the internet age! :grin:

I know Baker maintained a huge "swipe file," but maybe it lacked any photos of octopuses.

 

I wonder if Robert O'Brien lived in a town named Blue River? hm

Strictly from the front cover scans you are showing, I kinda lean more to the 5.0 copy. Looks better with out the inked name on front.

Yeah, from the FC they are really close!

The 5.0 has some minor stains on the BC though.

 

Sometimes trying to decide which copy to keep isn't easy! :frustrated:
