It is one of the "yellow" cover reproductions. The originals were brown, dark green, and grey. The pictures of the Pine Cones in TPS show the colors clearly.

I have an original grey and an original brown Pine Cone Catalog. Both have a single staple centered and both have a sting that binds the catalog in three places. The brown catalog has a brown string and the grey catalog has a light grey string. (I would guess the green Pine Cone has a greenish colored binding string)
The Flying goose (duck) catalog has two staples and a binding string same as the Pine Cone Catalog but heavier (thicker) and tan in color. We know the Flying Goose Catalog is later than any of the Pine Cones. The catalog pictures you posted in albums is new reproduction. |

Billy Gross' catalog is a rare original grey. I have found one in fifty years of collecting and have not found one in high condition.
