Addition from the biography of van Galen (Aspekt, 2011): "When that [Lubberhuizen] pointed out to him that there was no writer's name on it, De Vries came up with the appropriate pseudonym M. Swaertveger, a medieval name for gunsmith ... WA man appeared that summer as a result of a typo with the meaningless name Swaertreger Publisher Lubberhuizen did not use the publisher's name De Bezige Bij for the publication of WA-man, but the one-off variant De DoeENDE Dar ".
