Sports Illustrated 60rh Anniversary Issue Mosaic

[renegade]

So I am sitting in Dr. waiting room and I see the Sports Illustrated 60th Anniversary Issue with the Mosaic of the 1st issue on the cover. I think, I know who did that, and sure enough I check the credits and I do.

So did anyone submit a photo and was used? Robert did you use a photo of your own?

I put in my family and a few friends - but almost never do that.

Even with my glasses on that's a hard cover to look at without getting dizzy and wanting to puke.

For those that don't know, Robert made his non-NFA name by inventing the Photo Mosaic.

I actually own a first issue of SI. It's a good read. There are also a lot of gun adverts in it.

I was unaware of that fact. But...

Impressive indeed.

So I've got the wife quarantined here, because she may have pinkeye (conjunctivitis). (For those who don't know, that's what you get when you attend a company function at Dave & Buster's and rub your eye after handling game controllers used by people who don't wash their hands after visiting the restroom! )

Anyway, she's getting stir crazy around here and decided to do a puzzle. To my surprise, she shows up with something I didn't know she had, still sealed in the original wrapper. When I saw what it was, I asked to take a look at it to see if a very familiar name was listed anywhere. It was very obvious.



She also had one of these in the past that was of President Lincoln and made of Civil War photos, but lost it somehow. She said it as the hardest puzzle she'd ever worked on before. They are made by Buffalo Games, Inc. of Buffalo, NY. She wants another one, so I found one on Amazon for her.
