A few months ago I was browsing the web and came across an "Octopussy" variant cover I'd never noticed before. The book, published by Signet in 1967, most obviously differs from a similar Signet edition by the colour of the title text: orange versus white.
Recently I was able to acquire a copy of this variant and today it arrived in the mail. I was very pleased.
I haven't had a chance to scan the cover yet and unfortunately I can't access my original book to display the two together, but here's today's book with a scanned image of the original.
Hi Bazeer, That's a good one, definitely a variant and not one that's just faded in the sun - as I've been caught out by before! Cheers, Tim
