When the Age did that crap article on the Overland in 1998, they used a
stylised photo from the 1967 with back to back S's. The colour version
looks really nice but they went and reproduced it in black and white,
which didn't look very good. If you have "The A7 Era" you can see the
colour version on page viii, opposite the Foreword.
