  2. Yes. The ones published by Wickes and Joseph Segall are famous. So I'm asking about this one. I am drawing a blank. Dare I speculate? Too early.

  3. Ha. Forgot that Wickes was Gen. 27. This is reproduced from Wickes. Case closed.

  5. Yes, but I interrupted my Nittelnacht moratorium on Toyre to point it out, and I don't get any credit! That's like shaving on Sfire so as not to ruin someone's party, and not getting a hat-tip!

    (OK, it wasn't exactly Toyre, so it was more like washing or combing one's unkempt beard during Sfire.)
