When I visited The Kennedy/Marshall Company in 2017 this was the first thing I saw as soon as I stepped off of the elevator. It's the original illustration by Drew Struzan.

The original illustration for the "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" poster by Drew Struzan. This is before the billing block, tagline and the title treatment were added. There's no one in the photo to provide the proper scale, but it must have been about 5 feet in height, if not more.

It depicts Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones and Sean Connery as his father. Allison Doody, John Rhys-Davies, Denholm Elliot and Michael Byrne are on it as well.

A snippet from @filamcreatorcon.bsky.social 2025 at the Chula Vista Public Library. I was asked, “What advice I have for aspiring writers?” So I gave the same advice I got as an aspiring writer at 17 from screenwriter and author @straczynski.bsky.social.

I needed this tip!

Jen C Mars @jencmars.bsky.social · Oct 24

Another hot tip for saving money:

You can refill your Micron (or similar) pens when they dry up. There are several YouTube videos, but basically pop the end off, shake out the sponge-tube, drip whatever ink you like into the sponge slowly until it's wet through, then re-assemble. Voila! Like new!

Photo of a Micron pen with the end popped off, a sort of sponge-tube half hanging out of it, along with two bottles of black ink and a ceramic knife.
