   I'm looking for a GIF or PostScript picture of the Berkeley Unix Daemon,
   preferably suitable for putting on a T-Shirt or jacket if I can find someone
   to do the transfers.  I vaguely recall seeing one where he's wearing a T
   shirt saying "BSD to the bone".  That would be ideal if I could find it.
   I'd also love to get a down-on-his-luck daemon with a sign on his pitchfork
   saying "Will do open systems for food", but I doubt there's any canned
   artwork available like that...

   Any pointers would be much appreciated.

   Thanks!

The rendition of the Berkeley Daemon that I have on a poster from Berkeley
Software Design, Inc in my office reads "Copyright 1988 by Marshall Kirk
McKusick.  All Rights Reserved.  Reprinted with permission."  The drawing
is signed by John Lasseter.  Various BSD daemon shirts have been on sale
for $15 at the Usenix Booth during recent Usenix conferences.  I would
suggest getting in touch with Kirk.
