 		Not sure if this matters but these plant images appear to originally be from Kohler's Medizinal-Pflanzen

http://ridgwaydb.mobot.org/mobot/rarebooks/title.asp?relation=QK99A1K6318831914B1

This site has all of the plant images from all three volumes scanned in (something like 300 images in all).

I'd like to think that all the images can be found on that botanical.com site though as there are a lot less to try to go through (unless the book itself is the clue and this all goes with the ISBN numbers).

 		Smoker.jpg
The last flower in smoker.jpg is commonly known as Queen Anne's Lace. It also could be Bishop's Flower, which is very similar.

 		The image of the bug is really a drosophila, or fruit fly. A denticle belt is part of insect.

I always thought Truman looked older than that. So I would've gone with Wilson. I haven't seen all of the rest of the puzzle, how does it turn out using H, T and W?
