Pulled the Feb 71 MR. Immediately remembered the Walthers letter and the
PC steam drawing.  It is a full page letter article.  Not a letter to the
editor.

I remember my dad citing this article as an example of how he hated
arbitrary paint jobs put on models.  The thing that gets me are the number
of jade green Tyco PC F7s that sell on eBay for big bucks and nice models go
for not much money.
