That's really interesting. And a nice example of why I need help with the scans. Out of the 3 of those, I only own a Lundgren KC.
I do think the plates were different for the O'Hara. There is a remnant of the N, but there's also a lot more shading on the Stl version. The Stl version also has red or pink while the NY does not.
So it looks to me like they redid the original art to remove the NY and retook the negatives.
Of course that could be way off depending on the dpi of the original scans. Sometimes resizing loses some detail.
