Inside the frame is the face of a man(?), also with # crossed eyes, apparently with short hair and a "frame" beard, both # dark. # # Rene [04 Apr 1999] observes that the page is marked "a" with # pencil on the upper left corner[???]. # # Comments: # # The two medallions presumably represent the Sun and Moon. Compare # this diagram with the following one (f68r2), which is visible at # the right when the foldout is open. # # References: # # # Last edited on DATE TIME by USER
