Magic Windows - Ernest Nister (1981 Children's Book)

I have seen it before and acknowledged in my head that it shares the name (nearly!) of the Geogaddi track but yesterday I opened it up to have a closer look. Here are some images ...

Re: 148

Don't know if this means anything or if I've added up wrong, but…

Put the numbers in a 6x6 grid.
Add up the numbers in each column (e.g. 6 + 6 + 7 + 9 + missing + 5), then add up the totals of the results for each row. You get 148.

Ok, I reversed the latest hd version we've got - there's definitely something here.

from :10-:17 there is definitely something being said. "You are going to ... [enjoy it?] So ____" ??

Sometimes I wonder why artists dont have guts to meet people in person. Like in a town square or something. Just hold a random event there and say hi from a podium and tell everyone that you love them for their support. Like royals do. But nooo...!

I'd rather do another puzzle! Coming out and ...

Well, it's not really a clue in this case. It is something that was found at the end of following the other clues. It just looks like they forgot to take out the header there and now you can see their directory structure.
It's legitimate to question whether this is a genuine part of the game or a ...
