That looks like a well done example (as far as one can tell from those photos, ahem!), it seems they got everything right on this one: The grey rain streaks coming down from the cloud cover, the golden reflections of the lightning and the sun in the water, even the little dabs of grey ash raining down in the volcano cloud on the right.

I am not going to say how much mine cost. Even back then (the early 90s), I thought the store owner had omitted a zero when he quoted me the price. Yet when he repeated that two digit figure a second time, I did not question it again, I just paid and hurried it out of there, barely controlling my composure.

PS: I just compared it to mine, and I'll be damned, it STILL has a slight variance: In the right half the waves and one fish are not there. The Viking ship sits lower (where the waves are on mine) and is flipped:

I wonder what the title of this pattern was...: "The Birth of Aku Aku", perhaps ?
