Well done! I love those early issues (I read them a few years back) and remember liking those improved proverbs. There’s some really great stuff from someone named Mary Youngquist in those first 5-10 years or so. Might be interesting to do features on some of those early WW contributors. And Will’s first publications (as William F. Shortz) are in there, I think mid or late 70s, and totally fascinating to read.
