I remember that hanging on the wall of my dad's shop when I was growing
up (1970's)

In should hang in view in every employee entryway in every shop
everywhere. Framed versions should be distributed to every department
manager and above, and it should be mandatory to display them where they
see it every time they sit down at their desk.

Although slanted specifically to software, the one I pointed to goes nicely
beyond the original in a couple of nice ways. I like the way the customer
was billed. :-)

The version of the original poster that was on the wall in my first job, in
the 70s, must have been a 1000th generation xerox copy. That's popularity.

AHH! - you meant
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=cartoon+swing+set
not
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22cartoon+swing+set%22

Now I can't reconstruct the search I ended up using. The link I
found doesn't show up with the variations I just tried.
