He also scanned a couple of Arrow covers by Derek Stowe plus a query one and asked if Derek was OK? It has been a while since I last spoke to him so it was a good excuse to do so. After a few calls that went unanswered I began to wonder but I eventually got him, he had just come back from hospital. He sounded very chirpy, and we had a good chat which was brought to a halt by his lunch arriving. I&#8217;ll ring him again soon to carry on our conversation. I&#8217;ve added the two definite covers to Derek&#8217;s Panther\/Arrow page <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tikit.net\/2014%20Large\/Stowe\/DerekStowe2.htm\"><strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">HERE<\/span><\/strong><\/a> as they are signed.
