    ITIS --

    I just wanted to jump in and comment that I think you're on to a good thing with the scans. There's something powerful about actually seeing this kind of thing.

    Have you show her other photos? I've had verrrry interesting reactions when I've shown photos of things like the big memorial pyramid at Russell's gravesite (with the cross-and-crown emblem carved onto each side).

    Also, if you are looking into the cross with her, she might be interested in the cross-and-crown jewelry which the Society was selling up until 1927.

    http://www.strike9.com/alleymom/1927-WT-with-cross-jewelry-.jpg This is a scan of my copy of the November 1, 1927 Watch Tower, page 335. (I bought it on eBay.) The Society was still selling the cross jewelry at that point. There is a price list for the cross and crown pins, pendants, and accessories is in the right hand column of the page. (See below for a closeup.)

    TheListener said,

    It's like the Apostate Bat Signal was turned on and everyone jumped in to help.

    Yes, it's really pretty cool. There are a great many SUPERHEROS on this site, and the wonderful thing is that anyone can be one if they wish to.

    Like all true superheros, we stand on the shoulders of those who have come before us. Others yet to come will stand on our shoulders.

    Did anyone else notice the discrepancy in the page numbers?

    The Reasoning Book references Volume I, p. 376 of the Imperial Bible Dictionary.

    But the scans at

    http://members.tripod.com/sosoutreach/phone/crossx.html

    are from pages 84 and 85.

    In looking at the listings on www.abebooks.com, I see that there are different editions, which is probably the reason for the different pagination. But I thought I better mention this so no one is caught flatfooted! Also, if anyone plans to purchase one of the copies listed on abebooks, make sure you get the right volume. I would suggest asking the seller to check the volume they have to make sure it has the entry for "cross."
