Crazy Clown Cat Token Typo ?

Post by mmgun » Sun Mar 15, 2015 4:04 pm

The crazy Clown cat Token from series 5 and 7 has the word "Grandmother" in text but spells it "Grondmother"

http://www.magiclibrarities.net/597-rar ... eries.html

Is this some ancient spelling of the word Grandmother and therefore correct or is it a simple Typo ?

According to Mother Goose Club, it's a typo:

Pussycat, pussycat, where have you been?
I’ve been to see grandmother over the green!
What did she give you?
Milk in a can!
What did you say for it?
Thank you, Grandam!
