49P88 (discovered in 1996 - almost 30 years ago to make you feel old) was once the smallest p88, and I think remains the smallest p88 non-LCM oscillator. It also has some decent spark exposure, so I wouldn't say it's useless.

Also, I think QQD's original glider eater is at least partially the basis of the Spartan G-to-W-to-H discovered last year
