    This reminds me in its appearance, of a postcard from the 1950’s or earlier.

    Almost looks like a pencil drawing, John. Very cool. And now I have the song, "Like a Rock" stuck in my head...
    My hands were steady, my eyes were clear and bright
    my walk had purpose, my steps were quick and light
    And I held firm, to what I felt was right
    Like a rock
    Like a rock
    I was strong as I could be
    like a rock
    Nothin’ ever got to me
    like a rock
    I was somethin’ to see
    like a rock
    And I stood arrow straight
    unencumbered by the weight of all these hustlers and their schemes
    I stood proud I stood tall high above it all
    I still believed in my dream
    Twenty years now, where’d they go?
    Twenty years, I don’t know
    I sit and I wonder sometimes
    where they’ve gone...
    Sorry, couldn't help myself! ;-)
