      <![CDATA[Happy Boxing Day all. <br />
<br />
@20, 22 I think number six is just a pan-up of the Traffic Report perspective from Grant's window - and nine Grant published the night before Christmas Eve, if I recall correctly.<br />
<br />
Eight did get published in the Stranger - it's a still from that Second Ave convenience store video in which the fellow with his hands up is about to get kicked in the balls and all over by the undercover cop walking in that door, who'd mistaken him for another after-hours habitue of that block he'd been chasing.<br />
<br />
I had no idea about the others - beautifully done @20!

      <![CDATA[1. Canterbury Tales woodcut, 1484<br />
2. Map of Christmas Island (home of the ever disconcerting Coconut Crab</a>)<br />
3. Fat Mo'ai Kavakava, from Easter Island<br />
4. French Explorer Alphonse Pinart Introduced to 'Queen Mother' Koreto of Easter Island and Her Daughters<br />
5. ??? St. Peter's Cross made from posters applied to a plywood wall<br />
6. Somewhere in Seattle on Christmas?<br />
7. Mugshot of Jim Morrison, Sep. 20, 1970<br />
8. Was this in The Stranger earlier?<br />
9. I-5 on Christmas Eve?<br />
10. Trained bear on a motorcycle<br />
11. The Yellow Wallpaper b Charlotte Perkins Gilman<br />
<br />
Perhaps there is some logic in the earlier pictures, but it's gone by the time we reach Jim Morrison.
