Keyword Standard Format Listing

The (In)Complete Key-Word Standard Format Listing

The table below lists my own Keyword collection. All books were written / edited by W Murray but illustrated by the indicated artists.

Although divided into 3 subsets, close scrutiny of the end-papers and on the backs suggests other groupings. However, for the purposes of my project, I am interested in completing the list of illustrators, so any information is welcome.

One may remember the workbooks, friezes and flashcards. SF purists however prefer an easy life.
