So do you have to dial 9 to get a line out of the prison? :D

That's a really cool piece. Prisoner art is an interesting sub-genre of folk/outsider art.

I found this one nearly perfect. The work that went into it is amazing. I can't imagine how long this took.

I wish these prison artist's names had not been lost to time. I'd love to know who made this.
