Yeah, I know. This is a most crappy scan.
Unfortunately, the original artwork has suffered the ravages of time.
But if they can restore the Sistine Chapel, there's hope that this piece may
be brought back to it's original splendor.
This one has a lot of history behind it. I got the image from a flyer that Judy, the BBRC librarian,
sent around to intimidate everyone to return their overdue checkouts.
I later found the original 8x12 photo lining the bottom of Charlie's vegetable drawer in his fridge,
sadly beyond repair. I Xeroxed the image from Judy's flyer and pasted it onto a piece of greenbar
on which I'd printed the Strewwelpeter ditty, which I felt really matched not only the photo,
but also the source from which I knew both.

Again, not the best of scans.
There is a bit of damage to the original postcard, and noticeable artifacts from the scanning process.
The date on the postcard reads "78.09.16.16.09". With such details as these, it may be possible to someday reconstruct every moment of Charlie's life. |

This one, postmarked 30.8.85 from Germany, was a typical Charlie prank to see if the international
and US postal services would allow it through. Needless to say, the experiment was quite successful.
Geez, we're looking at some abundant fruits here! |

A missive from Santa Fe.
This demonstrates Charlie's gift for linguistics.
He not only fluent in English, German and Ebonics, but he has also mastered the Spanish vocabulary.
The blurred caption at the bottoms reads, "(formerly: "BORN TO BE BAD")". Oooh, pretty racy stuff! |

A photo captured by Herr Ros5e, of indeterminate origin. I vaguely recall it was from a trip to visit his sister (the school bus driver) in Texas. I was freshly returned from a trip to Mexico and picking up the language, so Charlie thought I would enjoy this. Which I, and my 'fridge, immensely did! |
