ATD: cover: "seal" & another cover

[pynchonoid]

Has somebody with an actual copy of Against the Day
checked the seal on the cover against the Snow Lion
image that seems to be the candidate?  If that was
previously mentioned, pardon my bandwidth.

Just watch how many more times Macking and Morris and
Malign bait before I respond, and how much of interest
I post in the meantime, before you judge me, fellow
pynchonoids. And, Mr. Bryquer, I disagreed with those
sentiments the last time you piped up to mention them,
thanks, and I still do, and suggest, again, that you
change the channel if the programming here doesn't
suit, and now let me get back to hypnotizing my chain
of fools here so I can continue my march to world
domination.

Also, critics please note, I'm modeling the
recommended don't-pass-around-the-whole-thread
practice, which even some list nannies don't manage to
do consistently. ;)

And, sticking with an excellent SUBJECT line, no
unwarranted or upsetting changes....

The model Pynchon-l citizen, in other words. So hold
your fire, big fella. Heck, I offered Malign the peace
bong, and the offer still holds.  Macking, too,
although I suspect a well-made martini might be his
thing.

Meanwhile, here's what Pynchon wrote about Looking for
Baby Paradise, a novel by John Speicher, 1967:

"Watch this Speicher cat, he's a writer of fine and
startling talent. His novel is not only funny and
frightening, absorbing, compassionate and
skillfully-paced, but underneath you can also feel
good solid rage, a deep sense of care, and most
hopefully a refusal to believe that the world he's
telling about really has to be like it is. For reasons
Americans have only lately begun looking into, and in
the best sense of the word, Looking for Baby Paraidse
is revolutionary."

Wonder if Pynchon meant that politically or if he was
just doing a favor for the publisher. 

Fun back then, too, when you could use a phrase like 
"this Speicher cat" with a straight face.

Post-ironically if not revolutionary,
