Those of you that frequent DF will have probably already read this question from me, but I guess thats no reason not to cross post it here. As the Acaeum is the ultimate resource for this sort of thing. If you fellows don't know anything about what I'm asking, then it doesn't exist.

I'm looking for a picture (which I'm certain exists,unless I'm suffering from some bizarre shared delusion) of a cover for a proposed companion edition (levels 15-36 presumably) to the Moldvay/Cook B/X series.

As I recall, the picture depicts a female human or elven sorcereress peering into a crystal ball. Inset into the picture is the image of the Expert cover wizard (Cook version) conjuring up the image of the adventurers in the basic set. So in effect it would have shown the covers from the each rulebook.

I think the background was turquoise, but I may be mistaken.

Does anyone remember this picture? and where I might have see it? I've been searching Dragon without any luck, but possibly it might have been in a TSR catalogue or loose leaf ad. The other possibility is that I may have seen it far more recently on the net somewhere.

Dragon #80 fits the description, but there's no distinct picture in the crystal ball. I guess it was your intention to put that in?
