Dave's Sofa - Art

For those who may have wondered where the various bits of artwork on the Dave's Sofa blog( www.daves-sofa.blogspot.com )have come from, and who should get deserved credit (etc), the following is a guide. Or not. I generally run on the theory that these photos do not infringe copyright, as they were sourced from the public domain. Where at all possible, I like to credit both the photographer and list the download location.
