\"\"<\/a>A while back I was pontificating on why PAN felt the need to issue two printings of ‘N or M?’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> just a year apart with so similar covers, I am now wondering the same as to why the two covers for ‘Maquis’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> from 1956 and 1957? I do think the later by Rex Archer is a better cover with the earlier one by Carl Wilton looking, in my opinion, indistinct. I pulled my other two George Millar<\/span><\/strong><\/a> titles of the shelf and have added them to the site. They are X16 ‘Horned Pigeon’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> and ‘The Bruneval Raid’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>I have mentioned Peter Tietjen a couple of times as he worked for PAN in the studios in the 1970s. He has a few albums of PAN related bits and pieces online and I dip into them now and again. This time it’s a video they made while experimenting with animation and features the word ”PIcador’ It is from 1975.
