image tweak on Exiles 1: The Ruins of Ambrai

I removed the SITB wrapper on the image on your verified Exiles 1: The Ruins of Ambrai, going from this adorned image to this unadorned one. The result uses the same underlying cover image used before. --MartyD 11:25, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

Thank you Marty. It's a bit of a puzzle for me as I normally remove the SITB wrapper. As it is, I no longer have the publication and so changed it to a transient verification. --Marc Kupper|talk 17:39, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

Traitor cover credit

"You had the note "Cover art is credited to Stevenson on the back cover" for Traitor by Matthew Stover. I have a copy that says "Cover art by / Steven D. / Anderson" in the lower right corner of the back cover. I went ahead with changing the publication record but if your copy says "Stevenson" then please drop a note on my talk page and we'll fix the record and clone it. I've also added the Canadian price and that the artwork is signed to the notes. --Marc Kupper|talk 07:02, 19 February 2010 (UTC)"

Total misread on my part. Good catch! ~Bill, --Bluesman 03:56, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Wheel of Stars

Think the artist's name in [this] record is a mutilation of Victoria Poyser?? I don't have the pub to check. I can see the stylish "Victoria" on the image, which is consistent with Ms Poyser. ~Bill, --Bluesman 16:02, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

Harry checked Jane Frank and she credits Poyser. Record updated. ~Bill, --Bluesman 19:57, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
That was a flub on my part. Even today the fingers seem unwilling to type that particular letter combination and so I need to look sternly at them. :-) I uploaded the cover image plus signature Author:Victoria Poyser. --Marc Kupper|talk 06:14, 18 March 2010 (UTC)

Singers of Time

Added an image to [this], noted that the price and date are verified by Locus. You were making sure on this one! Two verifications! ;-) ~Bill, --Bluesman 22:17, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

Thank you. It looks like I had a transient verification in February 2009 and then in September 2009 I bought a copy at a used book sale. I removed the transient. --Marc Kupper|talk 18:42, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Do you still need the old note?

You left a note to the primary verifier in this publication of The Winds of Darkover. It doesn't seem relevant. ../Doug H 16:57, 22 April 2018 (EDT)

Thanks for the heads up. I'd added the note in 2010. It looks like someone found the artist signature (hidden in plain sight in the middle of the image!) in 2012. I've deleted the note. --Marc Kupper 00:44, 1 May 2018 (EDT)
