Given that Tamara calculated the total dimensions of the box with those numbers, I'd assume it's not a typo. But it does seem pretty big. > Hold on a moment! Think carefully.

As for the images, I would agree that the idea of putting *everything* in them seems a bit much (not that I've ever done anything of this sort, although I'd be happy to make a cat <g>). Alice's suggestion sounds good, preferably with women in regional costumes, why not. I like Tamara's a lot too, but I think if we did the continents, we shouldn't add the whole man/wives/st. Ives idea, it doesn't really fit and would be very confusing. > The first panel should have a sign pointing right "To St Ives".
