Dr. Seuss School of Unorthodox Taxidermy
The specimens in Theodore Seuss Geisel's "Dr. Seuss School of Unorthodox Taxidermy" are absolutely marvelous. Limited reproductions of four of the pieces, including the Adoluvian Grackler, Two Horned Drouberhannis, Sawfish, and Mulberry Street Unicorn (seen here), are available in a matched number set for $8,380. Single pieces range from $1,695 to $3,495. From The Art of Dr. Seuss gallery:
Seuss embarked on an ingenious project in the early 1930s as he evolved from two-dimensional artworks to three-dimensional sculptures. What was most unusual for these mixed-media sculptures was the use of real animal parts including beaks, antlers and horns from deceased Forest Park Zoo animals where Seuss’s father was superintendent. Unorthodox Collection of Taxidermy was born in a cramped New York apartment and included a menagerie of inventive creatures with names like the “Two Horned Drouberhannis,” “Andulovian Grackler,” and “Semi-Normal Green-Lidded Fawn.” Shortly after Seuss created this unique collection of artworks, Look Magazine dubbed Seuss “The World’s Most Eminent Authority on Unheard-Of Animals.” To this day, Seuss’s Unorthodox Collection of Taxidermy remains as some of the finest examples of his inventive and multi-dimensional creativity.

I just saw that, tommy.
I have leapt over mountains of posts to ask... How many sheet pizzas would you get for 21 people???
What's a sheet pizza?
What's the size of the pizzas--measurement wise? With round pizzas, I'd go for 1-14 to 16" large sized pizza for every 3-4 people.
If you mean a big rectangular pizza that's cut into squares, I'd guess 3 pieces per person (or maybe 4 if you've got a lot of hearty eaters, or if that's the only food being served), so whatever would yield 63 (or 84) pieces.
(I feel so mathy!)
eta: pizza x-post! now I'm hungry!
With round pizzas, I'd go for 1-14 to 16" large sized pizza for every 3-4 people.
Be sure to add one extra pizza for me....
How big a sheet? There's a place work orders from that has them 3'x3' and I'd think one of those would suffice. But then I barely eat one piece. Maybe 2 to deal with veg/nonveg issues?
Aargh! It turned into a math problem!
I think I'll get two.
ETA- apparantly I am frazzled enough to think I am sending email!
