\"\"<\/a>Jackie Moggridge was born Dolores Theresa Sorour; on the 1st March 1922 and died on the 7th January 2004. She was a pioneering pilot and the first woman to do a parachute jump in South Africa . Her ashes were due to be scattered from a Spitfire on the 7th April but it was postponed. It is interesting to see the same photo was used for the covers of all editions of her autobiography including PAN G238 ‘Woman Pilot’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> painted by de Marco. Gerald Alexander Fahey (1919 to 1999) painted several covers for PAN but not under his real name but as de Marco. Fahey painted Sci\/Fi covers in the fifties under his real name and one example is HERE<\/span><\/strong><\/a> I think his later covers were an improvement!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

As promised here are a few ‘Pavanne’<\/span><\/strong><\/a> and ‘Picador’<\/span><\/strong><\/a> covers. The ‘Pavanne’ selection is from a style used around 1986 and has one which is not painted but is here as it includes my surname of which I have a small collection. The ‘Picadors’ are later but proof copies of which there seems to be an inordinate amount around. The majority of the ‘Pavanne’ covers are in ‘B’ format apart from the 1984 edition of ‘The Dud Avocado’<\/strong><\/em><\/span> in ‘A’ format. I did order a 1987 edition which mysteriously got ‘lost in the post’ As this was the only copy I could find on the web I beginning to have my suspicions ……!!! I have included one back cover to show how they featured the writer and will do the others when I have time.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

UPDATE<\/strong> I have now got a copy of the 1987 edition of<\/span> ‘The Dud Avocado’<\/span> <\/strong><\/em>which did cost me a bit more than the ‘lost’ copy as I expected!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

Always pleased to find another Hans Helweg and this time it’s for ‘The Old Woman and her Pig’<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/em> i<\/a>n the Oxford University Press Structured Readers. Scroll down the page to see this and two more in the same series.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

While Grandson William was visiting we were reading ‘Sarah and Simon and No Red Paint’<\/em><\/strong> <\/a><\/span>by Edward Ardizzone and I was taken by this drawing, it reminded me of my ‘library’<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>I was sorry to hear of the death of Henry ‘Harry’ Patterson (27\/071929 to 09\/04\/2022) probably better know to PAN readers under his pen name of Jack Higgins.
