Question:

I'm a member of LibraryThing.com (social network site for book freaks) and when I was adding my new copy of the Scribner edition of The Wind Through the Keyhole to my collected books today, I noticed the options for cover image included a version I'd not seen before. It looks just like the Scribner edition, but is missing the tiger, the cage and the person holding the lantern.

Does anyone know what the source of this cover is? Is there a variant cover to the Scribner edition? Or is this a foreign edition? Or perhaps some kind of error/preliminary release of incomplete artwork?

(I'll try to add an image here. The cover I'm talking about is the 1st/left one. As you can see, it matches the Scribner cover (3rd one), but has no tiger, cage or person-with-lantern). (Ignore the "high quality" and resolution dimensions in the lower-right of each cover image).



Thanks,
John
