Lizzie In A Coloring Book

Boy oh boy, our Lizzie sure gets around! Apparently there used to be a Lizzie scene in the Long Branch Haunted Mansion. I've been there myself when I used to live on the Jersey shore in the '80s, but, I don't recall seeing Lizzie? Unfortunately, the Mansion and the pier it stood on burned to the ground in 1987. Anyhoo, one of their promotional gimmicks was a coloring book featuring the inhabitants of the Mansion. Heres the link to Lizzie's page:

Most cool, Susan. Poor Emma!

I found a photo on page 3 of the brochure:

Great find, Harry, thanks! I didn't even think to look to see if there were any photos.

For those who fancy
Coloring books
And lots of people do
Here's a new one for you

A most unusual coloring book
The kind you'll never see
Crayons ready, very well
Begin to color Liz zie...

(My apologies to Kitty Kallen.)

That gives me an idea. Why don't some of you artists make a Borden coloring book section for the Hatchet? Maybe not of the murder scenes but of the other events in the case like the trial, Lizzie burning the dress or Andrew puting the key on the mantle?

I think Stefani had something like that on the web site- in "Diversions."
I used a pic of the house and colored it in using Photoshop and submitted that eons ago. On this laptop I can't access LABVM/L, but you could check there?
