More fiddly little details

Detail from one of the spaceship cabins...



...because some ideas really won't let you ignore them.

And before anyone asks, the heading in the red band is "Elmer Keith Field Tests Three New Phase Plasma rifles!"

Elmer Keith! Woot! Namecheck!

Is he still alive? I remember seeing occasional issues when I did some part-time work for a gun nut in the eighties, but I lost track after that.

You're quite delightfully mad, you know.

Thanks... I think.

Wiki says he went to the "Big Gun-Club in the Sky" in 1984.

Well done remembering the name after twenty-odd, mind you!

I mentioned his "article" on dinosaur hunting in my Professor Challenger RPG back in '95, so it isn't like I've never thought of him.

I tried googling this article - it sounded hilarious - but it doesn't seem online.

I should think 1995 would be about the point I first heard of him.
