Bonus points! The spelling error in the title is repeated several times in the front matter of the book.
Actually, “worshipers” is as valid as “worshippers.”
Could be you’re right… But I don’t recall seeing it that way. I was hoping the author was just making the word fit the width.
That’s weird. I actually never saw it spelled “worshipper”.
Not that I’ve seen that word a lot.
OK, I’ll stand corrected on the spelling issue: https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=worshiper,+worshipper&year_start=1800&year_end=2000&corpus=15&smoothing=3&share=&direct_url=t1;,worshiper;,c0;.t1;,worshipper;,c0

Wow, good find! What a thief!!! If you look at the large image you can see how sloppily they removed the heads.
Amazing you were able to find this. Now that I can compare the original to this, I see where they forgot to remove the white line (to the left) that had been between the names of Lovecraft and Seabury Quinn.
Dang! You got your time machine in my transport bubble!
Now what am I going to do?
Oh! It makes this cult of devil worshipers taste great!
Awwww…. sad skull face looks like Victor Meldrew from ‘One Foot In The Grave’…
