HK 170
Quote from StevenG on June 26, 2011, 4:19 pmThe original book shows the HK 170 version with "Height" spelled correctly and the Second Edition shows an HK 170 with "Height" spelled "Heigth". My theory is that the misspelling is an older version, corrected by the newer version. Neither book references the difference. Any thoughts?

I think it was just chance that two different pictures were used in the two editions of the book. Middleton cataloged the Ferris Wheel medals in the December 1991 issue of TAMS Journal.
