in thread What's the story behind the camel?

Camel II, at the very least, does contain a Colophon, but the page isn't numbered, and it isn't in the Table of Contents. I can't find my Camel III, but I assume it's more or less the same. The Colophon is three pages after the last grey (index) page.

OTOH, while it gives a paragraph-full of information about the camel, it gives nothing on why they decided to use a camel for the Camel.

    It's on the back of the very last page of my 3rd. Ed. Camel here.

      Is that the original English edition, or do you happen to have it in German? Mine is German, and missing it.
