Forgotten Futures X - first picture

[ffutures]

Here's the first picture for Forgotten Futures X, illustrating one of the stories in Chesterton's Tales of the Long Bow. Believe it or not, this is really in the story:



You'll believe...



...a pig can fly.

In fact I've omitted something - the occupants of the airship should be dropping real pigs by parachute!



None of the books are illustrated, so I think I'll try to include a picture for each book - I'd need 40-odd for all of the stories.

That is just too cute for words. ;o)

It's a typical Chesterton gag - someone makes a remark about pigs flying, so one of the characters (an expert aviator) promptly builds a pig-shaped balloon and uses it to drop pigs to an area where the evil beaurocrats have banned them.
