Default WTB: Farside Turbo Cartoon

There is an old Farside cartoon by Gary Larson that shows two lions surveying a herd of animals for their next meal. Two of the animals have "Turbo" on their sides. One lion says "Forget these guys"

Does anybody have a copy of this they would be willing to part with?

That's great! Larson's a genius! If you locate it, I'd be interested in a copy.

Old but good. That's a real Larson classic.

A large format print is what I'm looking for also. Many New Yorker cartoons are available in large format. These cartoons are copyrighted material, and all the websites that had been dedicated to them got letters saying "cut it out or you'll be talking to my attorneys".

I really miss starting my day at work by checking out what Larson had in store for that day on my desk calendar.
