According to the Inducks, one of his covers has been published elsewhere
than in the US:

KJU 020        1 c          JMi JMu US  T:This is it! Return to Xanadu - the
|      sequel you didn't expect!
|      [pubdate:1991-12]
|      fi: RS1991B12
|      us: US 261

Strange that the Finns didn't use the Rosa cover for this story...
