      Don’t know if you remember 90s internet all that clearly, but saving pictures (or viewing them) really wasn’t the same back then.

        just fyi, this isn’t about an NFT but rather about an original, physical, drawing from 1993!

        and, believe it or not, this image wasn’t even drawn using a computer… the creator (called a cartoonist in those days) literally physically drew it by hand using ink on paper (which was the style at the time)
