Thank you for this link. There is one mosaic, from the link above,
from Mariner 10's second encounter with Mercury,
that is close to what was in Sky and Telecope, namely this one.





However, as noted on the website, the gores in this image were to be filled in
using images from the 1st and 3rd Mercury encounter. I believe that that was the
mosiac that I saw in S and T. Does anyone have access to that image?
I really liked it as it showed the entire hemisphere of Mercury, that was imaged
by Mariner 10, in one view.

It might be interesting to see if a higher resolution version of this south polar mosaic is available.
