Puzzle Description:

This should be a fairly easy one to decipher. I had to use green in the middle because it would not have solved logically if I didn't, and required guessing. I'll reserve the first comment, which will be the answer after it's deciphered. Leave your guess at the solution in the comments. =)

Ellen got it correct on the very next comment; turns out I didn't need to reserve the first comment on this one for that purpose, but I'll explain the puzzle. The bow plus the zoo for BOZO, the word "THE", and my drawing of a clown. BOZO THE CLOWN. Good job Ellen! =)

Bozo the Clown. You are right, fairly easy.

thanks for participating Bryan!

technically you should include a "- (minus) w" after the bow and a "- (minus) o" after the zoo otherwise this guys name is bowzoo the clown
haha

by the way what is the "structure" surrounding the word zoo (which i originally read as "200" until i saw the clown)?

Actually, I've looked at a few puzzles from the show's era; they have actually used items much in the fashion of my usage of the bow. One big one is the awl to represent "all". The idea is the sound, not the spelling. =)

Of course, ZOO doesn't sound like "zoe", but that's the only possible quibble here. And Ellen was correct on the solution. =)

bugaboo, I was trying to draw something representing a gate or overhanging nameplate and a path going into the zoo. That image was a harder one as I didn't think drawing a single caged animal would give off the idea of a zoo.

Fun puzzle, Bryan. I think the green in the middle was a good idea. Overall very enjoyable.

thanks for entry, Bryan
