Someone put up the proof, and I'll eat my words.


if the header tag is to be believed, it is from the era *before* cardboard inserts, when the instructions were printed with the title card on them (the same way Semroc does now).

Still, this doesn't strike me as legit, though they could have been done for some special order. The people here who would know are Bill Simon (don't know if he's recently logged on), and Vern & Gleda, who are probably reading the forum under another name.
