OK Marc ! Have you had the Cirlot out again ???!!! LOL
Coincidentally, in recent discussion with Robert Wilkinson-Latham about the star, he noted the clarification that the symbol on the proof plug surround was not actually the six point star, but superimposed triangles. While this had to do with the Star of Solomon in that it is the same arrangement, it had more to do with the earlier symbolism representing double strength, in the sense often construed with the triangle and strength.

Its always great to hear from you Marc!!!

All the best,
Jim
