The classified ad clearly stated No Pets Allowed.” (submitted by Vivian Guy, from Tulsa, U.S.A) THIRD PLACE “Quick! TV inspector’s coming…” (submitted by Andres, London, UK) Many congratulations to Amy Vail from Rochester New York for providing the winning caption and being the well deserved recipient of a Public Domain Review tote bag! For those wondering, the image is from Volume 1 of a 15th century Belgian manuscript entitled Anciennes et nouvelles chroniques d’Angleterre (c.1470-1480) by Jean Wavrin, housed and digitised by the British Library (Royal 15 E IV). The picture is a detail from folio 52 showing Morbidus and the sea monster. Many thanks to the wonderful blog Demonagerie through which we stumbled across the image. Didn’t win this time?
