Hello. Some time ago on a web site I've since lost the link to, someone had a picture of a poster, drawn by our very own D.C. Simpson. The picture is below (I reduced the dimensions by 50 percent so it wouldn't take up so much bandwidth, I apologize for any distortions).<br><br>I was curious if anyone had actually seen this poster in a library or elsewhere.<br><br>(Mr. Simpson, if you're reading this and would rather not have this picture posted, please tell me and I'll remove it.)

Hehe, that's a great poster. I'd love to see it in the local library, or even my school's one.

my guess is huck finn by mark twain, but thats just based off of the fact taht there' ppl on a raft. but the title/author is not readable here. may zaaphod can tell us if it was ledgable before shrinkage, but somehow i doubt it was

I can read the cover just fine, and penguinita is right; Of course, on the book "Huckleberry Finn" is spelled out in full in all caps at the top of the book and on the spine, and "by Mark Twain" is just below the raft. Try pasting a screencap and looking at the pixellated mess as you zoom in and see if it looks clearer.

Tavis and Penguinita are correct, yes, it is "Huckleberry Finn."<br><br>If you'd like I could post the full-size picture, so as to remove any confusion and pixilation and whatnot.
