Red-spined AtD?

[bekah]

Perhaps the printers had a choice,  lichen green or corally red in 
the US (for TRP's favorite colors and season),  but in the UK they 
also had the black option to keep out the "English Red"

or  "British Green"  <http://tinyurl.com/ycmkhs>.

(Iow,  the printers in Britain may not have had a access to the same material.)

And btw,  I peeked inside the jacket in Borders today and the green 
is lovely.   The jacket is not so hot though, with the 20% off 
sticker on it and no sign of the seal.  I can't remember if the 
shadow style print was used or not.    It was just different.
