Cheers mate missed that
That gives U.S and A as misspelled items
Anybody else see this as more than coincidence?

[tanner]

May be nothing but while trying to link everything together

Came across an obscure link between Mary Poppins and the plant sorrel from the Lithuanian translation

http://www.julieandrews.co.uk/books_main.htm

Scroll down to the book Simeon's Gift,
penned by Julie Andrews(aka Mary Poppins)

quote..."In a faraway time and place, a humble musician named Simeon sets out on a quest. Thirsting for knowledge and eager to improve his craft, he risks losing all that is important to him, including the love of his beautiful Sorrel."
Also In 1983, she was chosen as the Hasty Pudding Woman of the Year by the Harvard University theatrical society whatever that means

Keep hitting a dead end with this line of thinking
However there is a variety of wood sorrel called Violet wood sorrel

http://www.npwrc.usgs.gov/resource/literatr/wildflwr/species/oxalviol.htm

possible character link there,for now though unless anyone has any other thoughts i'm putting this in my NEARLY pile
Maybe there's just no more too it

Hi
Sorry to return to an old question but has anyone found something else in this card? I just solved it today with about 2 minutes on Google(amazing trivia and all but hardly worth being black) I know we're all busy with wave 2 and all but anyone with ideas? Anyone... anyone... Bueller... Bueller...

This card has been changed quite significantly in the "Wave 1 Season 1" version. The paper is centered, the whole scene is brighter, Anna's sig is off the paper, and there's an extra space before the last line. Most noticeably, the creeping darkness is all gone, and the background is now a different wooden table with some green-blue lichen-ish stuff of the bottom and running across the middle.
