My old friend, Pete, has painted some really great mastheads over the past few months for The Sneeze.

First he did the sneezing man...

then the sneezing skeleton...

and the sneezing jack-o-lantern...

But last week he outdid himself.

I asked him for a sneezing cooked turkey to ring in Thanksgiving and the results are pretty insane. I think it's funny, beautifully executed and kind of horrifying all at the same time. What more could you possibly ask for?

I couldn't wait until Thanksgiving week to unveil it, and I wanted to show it off in all its glory before it's relegated to masthead-size.

Pete is a great guy and a great artist. If you ever need illustration work, hire him! The more work he gets, the less guilty I need to feel about taking advantage of him. And isn't that what Thanksgiving is really all about?
