is this poison ivy?

So, I'm not the only one with Villard's book, a girlfriend gave me mine, I think she found it at a used book store in S.F, during the mid 90s.
my favorite book when I was a kid at the library, I think I was the only one to check it out, over and over.
I'm sure Argema would eat poison ivy, I'll probably never find out though, I don't think we have poison ivy in the west here,
just poison oak, and now, people have been finding less toxic plants, but at the time, as in the book, Argema was a big mystery.
And saving old things- hindsight is 2020, we had far too many garage sales to have anything much left from the heyday of the 70's,
now I pay 100 times as much recreating my room of toys.

I purchased my copy of Villard's "Moths and How to Rear Them" at a used book store Chardon, Ohio in the early 1970's. Do not remember the price. I have another copy I purchased at a used book store in Indianapolis in 1983(?) for a $1.00. The previous owner was given the book by someone named Booby.
