Interesting life, on few but fine sources, no copyvio obvious. Please combine the first two, two pages from one book. We have {{rp}} for that purpose. I prefer ALT1 by far, because we could make many hooks saying someone thinks being the first ;) The image is licensed and a cute unusual illustration. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:04, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
