***As he walked along he whistled and sang and turned handsprings and flapjacks. [F. Scott Fitzgerald]***The stranger...was trying to buy the land for a song. He was considering what song to offer.

A couple of notes:"Seeking the Bubble Reputation at the Camera's Mouth": Okay, I have no idea what that headline means."The Younger Generation of French Illustrators": I guess it's unintentional that the photo spread suggests that it's the babies who are this "younger generation" of illustrators?
