That was fun. 🙂
I got most of them right, but I’d forgotten that Waite was born in NY. And I missed No. 7 – not that the image isn’t burned into my brain, but I don’t personally consider someone standing on a roof to be “inside.”. I still enjoyed it, though, and I hope to see more quizzes.

Enjoyed this, I too had to guess on the 2 of wands as I see him on the parapet but he is within the confines of the building! Hope there will be more quizzes in the future. Thank you
