(That's Eriksson I think)
I really don't remember if it looked like that, but it's possible...
I notice the page is from the Swedish 'Donald Duck', this magazine
still exists, and Lego is still advertising in it!

Yeah, I know :-( I have the page with the modern church (just forgot
to take a pic), but the last one (inside back cover) is missing (as
the whole cover). I remember the Empire State Building... I'm also
missing two pages in the middle (9b, 10a), with animals/mosaic.
Any chance you could fix some scans of those missing pages, and send
me/tell me where to find them - I would love to have them all!

So do I. It was this book, my kids (and Gryphon Bricks) that made me
start creating the BlockCAD program - the goal is to recreate all the
models, in the book, with BlockCAD (no, not the models in the photos!
Only the right-hand pages).
