The 8th version of the story of "Moses", it turns out, not only saw Frank Bolle illustrating the story for his 2nd time (with much of the art being minor variations on his previous version), but with the text being reused VERBATIM from the
2 previous versions!
If you click on the links and open new browsers, you can flip between them to compare: "Moses, Part 4" and "Moses, Part 6".
If I have any criticism of this version, it's that it looks like Bolle may have been using smaller art boards (the linework is less detailed and the lines appear thicker), and, the computer font clashes with the art, and appears to have forced everything into more unifoirm rectangular panels to accomodate the text. In this case, "new" was decidedly NOT "better".
