Great post Ed! I've always wondered who proposed that the "turnips" always be in the same "pose", meaning with the body at that particular angle (some more exaggerated than others) and with those silly little feet scratched there as almost an afterthought.
Examples like the third down remind me of teal dropping nearly to water-level to go screaming by the gunner and they were pictured exactly at the moment they levelled off before touching the water.
There are some truly ugly Grade 2 turnips on Parkers - those engraved during the Anschutz tenure come quickly to mind.
