I just found a signed first edition copy of Ringmaster http://www.amazon.com/Ringmaster-Yea.../dp/0525247572. I went to our local thrift store and saw the book, commenting to my Aunt about the unicorn on the cover as the guy who created it lived only a few miles from where I lived as a child. Opening it to check for missing pages I found the following...
Quote:
P.S. The opinion usually seen on the internet that the unicorn had a bull's horn implanted in it's forehead is falsified by this book. That was a rumor deliberately released by the circus to drum up publicity. The animal actually had it's own horn buds transplanted next to one another so they would grow together into a single horn. Unfortunately I never got to see the unicorns despite their nearby location but some good pictures can be found here... http://www.sideshowworld.com/9-ms-pi/interview-OZ.html |
