OK I zoomed in and read the entire thing. So let me get this right...
The ad looks to be a parody rip off of the Norman Rockwell ad from the Iron Man Captain American from the 1960s.
The newer ad mimics the Norman Rockwell ad in every way except it shows a pig drawing at a desk, rather than Norman. The fine print test has changed a bit but the premise is the same.
You mention that Austin was doing parody ads in this issue, so this must be some sort of joke from Austin that is directly related to the Rockwell ad we discussed yesterday.
Do I have this right?
Lol
Seems about right, this link should make it bigger and easier to read
