I thought that would give it away. :D

Here is the next one. This is the First Edition frontispiece from 'Mr Galliano's Circus'', Courtenay's favourite book, I think. :D.

In this one there are fifteen changes in the second picture. You can post whatever answers you spot, whenever you want.

I know that affected my own voting in this poll — I voted for The Valley of Adventure because I wanted to give a vote to the Adventure series as a whole, as it's my favourite series overall (along with Galliano's Circus!).

I said favourite series there, not favourite book. :wink: (If I'd been referring to the book itself, I would have called it by its full title of Mr Galliano's Circus.)

I just remembered a post that referred to Galliano's being a favourite - and it was way back last year. I just did a search for it tonight. Near enough, anyway. ;)
