UPDATE *** Ed King Book ***

[NW Mailing List]

Just looked at the snippet of Ed K's book in TAF and the cover caught my
eye.  Looks like someone took the liberty of colorizing a B&W photo of a
G.  Makes for pretty highlights, but I question the lettering color.  Don't
know the date for the photo but it is in the old "&" scheme.  To my
knowledge, when they were using periods at the ends of the words, they used
white paint.  Again, I don't know the timeline for changing to gold or the
date for the photo used, but would hope that whoever did the colorization
would have done the research to insure its correctness.  Since the book has
not been printed yet, there would seem to be time to correct this point if
it is in error.  I know we have some folks that are knowledgeable and have
documentation for dates for lettering schemes.  Let's hear from the experts.
