Re: Phil Currie and Burroughs?

[Michael Skrepnick <palaeopaint@dinosaursinart.com>]

Phil later went on to contribute articles to a quarterly publication , the 
"Burroughs Bulletin" produced in Louisville, Kentucky and distributed out of 
Chicago.  His first article appeared in the October 1993 edition addressing 
anatomical differences in factual and fictional dinosaurs and other denizens 
of prehistory ( he had asked me to provide a sketch of a "Gryf" which is a 
modified, oversized version of Triceratops from ERB's Tarzan / Pellucidar 
series, for that particular installment).  Phil has been a long time fan of 
science fiction / science fantasy, as are many of us.
