If you could get in touch with a courtroom sketch artist and get them to draw a picture of you and your family in a courtroom setting in a courtroom sketch style, that might make a good birthday/anniversary present.

Lynette “Squeaky” Fromme throwing an apple at prosecuting attorney Dwayne Keyes during her trial for the attempted assassination of President Ford

(is this a genuine courtroom sketch? was this the standard style for courtroom sketches in mid-1970s California? I know the apple thing did happen, but is this a courtroom sketch or an illustration from somewhere else?)

PS Nice comparison of the 3 Whitey Bulger sketches.
Gotta say my favorite's the last (again, by Christine Cornell)-- it's not just the psychedelic colors, but those expressive faces! Conveying character & drama.

I just remembered I actually emailed the sketch artist of that Robin Thicke one upthread to ask how much, and I guess it was some high-three-figure number and I never pulled the trigger. One day it will grace my office.
