<p>Similar to my <a href="http://ngscollectors.ning.com/forum/topics/drastic-differences-between-australian-and-us-version-example-of" rel="noopener" target="_blank">previous discussion</a> I noticed differences between my copy of the June 2002 issue and what is shown on the archive. </p>
<p>-Front cover is identical</p>
<p>-Contents page is the same</p>
<p>-Letters are present</p>
<p>-I am noticing a lot more ads in the archive version. </p>
<p>-I noticed there is no "Insight on Brazil" page,…</p>

<p>-I am noticing a lot more ads in the archive version. </p>
<p>-I noticed there is no "Insight on Brazil" page, which I notice tends to be tied to the HSBC advertisements (see attachment) - this is after the "GEOGRAPHICA" page</p>
<p>-I have the "Chinese Soccer" page but not the "Feats of Clay Page" or the "A New Old View of the Tower", but I do have the "Behind the Scenes" page (in fact those two are side by side).</p>
<p>-I don't have the "Mickey Mouse artist" page but I do have "In Praise of the Female Athlete" page</p>
<p>-The "get the picture" page is next to the "Ask us" page, and the "Fallen Hero" page is completely removed.</p>
<p>-Everything after this point is identical though I notice more ads at the end embedded between the last few pages.</p>

<p>Now while I came to investigate this particular issue is that according to sources here and lists elsewhere, this issue is supposed to come with the map:</p>
<p></p>
<p>"Quest for Everest"</p>
<p></p>
<p>Now I thought it was quite curious that my issue and the archive have no mention of this. In fact, what was puzzling was that when I typed in "quest for everest" on the archive search, it led me to the Everest map of 2003-May (Everest 50) - which I do have and is indicated to be present in that issue. The odd thing though is that it is labeled as "2002-June" in the archive search result. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Looking elsewhere on the internet, it appears that the map is real and does exist:</p>
<p><a href="https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/130837920490?hash=item1e768c3aea:g:Ce0AAOxyQ45Q-zS9">https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/130837920490?hash=item1e768c3aea:g:Ce0AAOxyQ45Q-zS9</a></p>
<p></p>
<p>It is curious that there appears to be no mention of anything Everest related in the 2002-June issue yet there is a supplement in this issue of that topic? I wonder why this issue came with this particular supplement (to US subscribers at least?).</p>
