I've made three different covers from the image with the wood like background.

This cover is the way the cover is.

With this cover, I asked AI to make the heads complete and accurate coloring. It actually looks pretty good.

AI is pretty good for dealing with covers. If I get a cover with a badge or text I don't want, I can get rid of it. If I cannot a good enough image as in the case with this cover, AI can usually fix what's available.

This is the modified cover with a modified Enterprise.

Thanks, but I think it was just that the handwriting was not the best.

The handwriting could also have been read as "hown" but as soon as AI came up with "power," that fit the context *perfectly*. The foreword is for a short American western horse story ... Middle English isn't quite what one would expect there! Though, interestingly enough, the horse in question does get to visit England!

AI cleared up another word in the same foreword for me today. Looked kinda like it began with "h" was actually a "W."

I'm rolling as many OCR texts as I can while my shaky computer with ABBYY Finereader holds up. I'm actually taking a short break while the machine reboots from yet another blue screen crash.

This short 1927 book might be Mobileread eligible, I do need to check author/foreword author/artist death dates. Definitely PD in the USA tho.
