Posters promoting an anti-immigration rally.

Seeing "Amelie" inspired some research into the phenomenon of traveling garden gnomes.

Mail & Guardian, South Africa, Itinerant Gnomes, 1996: "It has become fashionable around the globe for gnomes to be 'borrowed' from their gardens and to begin sending postcards from holiday spots in faraway climes."

The Gnome File, 1990: "What follows is a mish-mash of observations, diaries, and transcripts from the time I stole a garden gnome, sent it on a trip and returned it home. " (See photos.)
