Very nice image. I like the shading which makes it look real. Good work!#2: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Jul 17, 2010
Very nice puzzle and very clear image.#3: doreen (doreenfanning) on Jul 17, 2010
Wow. To think that just a little bit over 100 years ago, this was the cutting edge of communications and now I am sitting here on my couch with my laptop doing puzzles online and writing messages people all over the world will see! Mindboggling. One hundred years is just a couple of generations. My grandparents were born in the 1880's. Wow!#4: Minnie Fuerstnau (m.fuerstnau) on Jul 18, 2010
This might make a really nice series if you were interested in doing one!#5: Jota (jota) on Jul 18, 2010
