Art blast from the far past

Poet Marvin Bell recently stopped by to deliver, among other things, this poster from the early days of the IWP. I especially love how each of the residents got to literally (and literarily) put their stamp on it. It would have been great to get this last year, if only for the 40-year symmetry. What might a 2010 version of this poster look like?
