What an exemplary piece of late-19th century Floridian reptilian ceramic ware. I certainly think this charming gator is worth quite a few bowls of gumbo soup.

Oh no no no
When you catch that dirty grimy old geezer fingering up your grapes again while doing your summer job at the local convenience store.

Fore-edge painting
A fore-edge painting is a scene painted on the edges of the pages of a book. There are two basic forms, including paintings on edges that have been fanned and edges that are closed; thus with the first instance a book edge must be fanned to see the painting and in the second the painting is on the closed edge itself and thus should not be fanned. A fanned painting is one that is not visible when the book is closed.
The earliest fore-edge paintings date possibly as far back as the 10th century; these earliest paintings were symbolic designs. Early English fore-edge paintings, believed to date to the 14th century, presented heraldic designs in gold and other colours.
