Is This Pinecone Too Mild for You, Paige?

An antique botanical illustration showing three pine cone specimens labeled Fig. 1, 2, and 3, each with accompanying pine needles. The text labels identify them as PINUS serotina, PINUS Tæda, and PINUS Australis. The overlaid text humorously mislabels the same cones as 'PIN tardif', 'PIN Téda', and 'PIN Austral', playing on the French words for 'late' and 'southern'.
