After a bit of negotiating I managed to pick up a piece of original artwork by the late Kevin Tweddell from his daughter. It was a little more than I usually pay but as it is a triptych I suppose I am getting three covers for my money plus they were also used on the later hardback editions from Severn House Publishing. You can see a better image of the artwork and other titles by Pamela Belle by clicking on the image below.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

I am puzzling over two cover versions of ‘The Stone Leopard’<\/span><\/a> <\/em><\/span><\/strong>as to why PAN felt the need to alter the one from Canada dated 1976 to when it was republished in the UK in 1985? Both versions have Gino d’Achilles’ monogram and he also did another version I found on line but unfortunately can’t find a coy for sale to buy and to check the date, anyone out there with one to spare?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
