I found “Brokeback Mountain” short story in my "The Complete New Yorker" DVDs.  Thought you may want to look at the images of the short story in the original publication. (Click to enlarge)

Jenny, thank you so much for those images!  It's wonderful to see the story in context like that.  I already can predict a thread or two starting up discussing the poem, cartoons and drawings interspersed with the text of the story.  Everything has meaning to a Brokie.

I love the cover of the magazine, too.  It's definitely in the spirit of our "Performance" thread!  ;D

Note to Meryl:  Just don't let JBB get his greasy little hands all over the nice fancy paper in the Sacred Relics Room.   ;)

Awww... Ruby, we have to have something nicer for you if it's going to the reliquary.  PM me your e-mail account that can accept files around 10MB.  I think gmail account should work.

Jenny, in hopes you'll do the same for me, I'm PMing you my e-mail, too.  :D  8)

Alec, I'm heading to the SRR now to put the good paper out of JBB's reach.  ;D

That's nice of U to email this to people who want it (I have done that too) but I think posting the story is going too far--it's a copyrighted story and Annie Proulx deserves the royalties for the sale of the book. Just MHO.

Lee,

Thanks for the kindly reminder.  Really, I appreciate it and am not offended one bit.  I was wondering if I may violate the copyright too. 

I believe almost everyone here owns a copy of the short story one form or another.  I just thought it’s nice to see the short story in the original publication.  I guess you probably can find the Oct. 13, 1997 New Yorker on ebay if you want a copy of that, but that will not benefit Anne one penny. 

Put that aside, I am sincerely interested to know when we might violate copyright with us posting pictures from the movie or from the magazine (in this case), using the pictures from the movie as avatar, or modifying them.  I am definitely not going to put the printable file anywhere here.  Do you think the images of the magazine is also too much?  Will smaller size of the images easy that concern?
