Hi B,

I'll try to remember to look for newer printings of this content while I'm searching for reprinted EC Bible stories.
I'm trying to collect cover scans of any publications that reprinted EC content.
Whenever I think my searches are over, I find something new that's out there.
I'm still searching for two high quality scans of Ballantine paperback books that reprinted EC Bible story content.
Eventually, I will be digging through listings and credits again.
