[Ivy set] 004 - Zoo Zanyism

fFunny story about this one. I was sitting talking with someone, I fForget exactly who now, and they were looking at this card with absolute bepuzzlement. He was expounding on why this card might be so very different in style fFrom the others, and what do you suppose that meant? And I, thinking he really was quite new and unfamiliar with the cards, began to explain the cards are all a bit different in style and technique. Suddenly it struck him: Oh! I thought this was the *map* on the back of the card, not the card itself!

This is a nice little card.
You know. fFor the kids.

Guest artist: Denise Wilton
The Card wrote:
Seven animals have escaped fFrom the perplex city zoo and the zookeeper needs your help to fFind them! Which animals can you see in this picture?


The interested might like to see Denise's other work here: http://www.styledeficit.com/

EDIT: renamed to Ivy set per Velma. How clumsy of me.

Actually the hippo/rhino I believe you are referring to is a polar bear.

This card doesn't directly fit into the map (much like 7 bridges),

but the zoo tile is on the back of #238 Riemann
and the text says:

Quote:
PERPLEX CITY ZOO
The Perplex City Zoo in Polygon Park was established in 75AC after the closure of the Old Town Zoo. The zoo houses a wide range of land animals but lacks the facilities for birds or large marine animals However, it remains a popular attraction of Perplex City, no doubt in part due to its collection of tretretretres


so you need to search harder, it is your friend Very Happy
