Hello,

I know Dragon Magazine 208 by TSR exists as a readily available PDF in the CD version of the Dragon archive, but the scans in it are too crude to get me anywhere. There is an article, "Magic for your Horse", from pages 29 to 32.

The article is credited to Eric Olson (whom I suspect doesn't exist), but the signature should read Eric Olsen instead of Olson. In the scanned version it reads Olson, but it also reads Eric. We assumed it was art by Erik Olson, but I'm pretty sure Mr. Olson could spell his own name correctly at the time, as he does in many signatures, so I believe that the artist for the issue must have been Eric Olsen.

Can anyone check if it reads differently in dead tree format?

It appears to say "Raymond Luxury-Yacht"

Alright, nevermind, a redditor found those. It's deffo Eric Olson, not Eric Olsen.

EDIT: And the Reference Guide is deffo Eric Olsen. Okay, it wasn't two guys, it was three different artists.
