Melvil's handsome fizzog

You talk; we listen. "Cut out the verbals," you say. "Give us some visuals. Take some advantage of the genre-busting capabilities of your chosen medium, why don't you, for once." Okey-doke. I'm going to see if we can figure out how to wind up our new-fangled electric photograph-making machine. In the meantime, here are a couple of images of our great leader. The photo is © OCLC, but the drawing is in the public domain, and (as I'm sure you'll agree) is perfect for use in all your multimedia presentations about his life and work. (You were just about to make one, right?) Oh, and there's a brief biography of Melvil Dewey available here. The bio doesn't give you any more pix, though. Remember: it's only the Dewey blog that has the pix.

You know, it's always hard to find graphics when you need them. Wonder if we'll see a graphic novel about Melvil soon?

I've always been partial to the strange mural of Lake Placid, Fla., myself: http://www.lakeplacid-florida.com/05_dewey.shtml
