Susan, thanks for all for the research and sharing of info.   Rob and Gary
scans of the whole book would be really fabulous!   Please...
Jacket scans are wonderful Suz.

Does the book have a more detailed picture of the  the tree shown in the
first jacket cover scan?
The top of the tree resembles the top half of one of John Gramley's smaller
but no less grand Easter eggs
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=334  .
It's hard for me to judge the scale of the tree.  Diameter of the trunk
rounds?   How would you more experienced builders start putting this tree
together?  Gosh, i probably don't even have suitable bricks for building it
. . .  yet  ;-) !
