Ian kindly replied to my query about his Armada Series Book Art - Internal Illustrations.
He explained that he has has been reorganising his websites.
The Enid Blyton Armada page can now be found by clicking the link above or below.

Many thanks once again, Ian.

(If you haven't seen the illustrations Ian has compiled, do check them out, they really are excellent.)

I collected all of the FFO Armada paperbacks. The artwork on the covers with the different background colours really appealed to me as a young boy.
Thanks for the links, Pete. :D

I haven't looked at all the illustrations yet, but the ones I've seen so far look really nice.

I think the only one that I own is Vanished Prince. I can see I'm going to be tempted to collect yet another version of each title. ;)

Sadly, it looks like the website has expired. :(

That's sad. I visited it occasionally. Always a pleasure.
