Shakespeare Reference in Parlor Games

The Shakespeare reference in Parlor Games isn’t in the text, but in an illustration. It comes on the pages detailing the game Clumps II: Botticelli, which is a variation of Twenty Questions where the person chooses “a notable historical personage” (p. 47). The pages contain illustrations of examples, including one of William Shakespeare. The book was written by Paul Barnett, and the illustrations were done by Ivan Hissey.

Parlor Games was published in 1992, through Anness Publishing Limited, and is a Bulfinch Press Book. The copy I read was the First United States Edition.
