Can't believe I've finally found a copy of this book online! I'm seeking permission to use etchings from this book in Fifth Star Labs Sky Guide app. We are currently updating our constellation articles and would love to include the etching of Jason and the Argonauts on page 227 (Orpheus, Argonaut). I can't find anything online about copyright permissions for commercial uses, so hoping a comment here will do the trick! Thanks - Dr Jeni Millard
