Sure it's going to be the skyline of Chicago and Mayor Daley's picture!!

I heard it was going to be the smiling Lincoln!

Which Mayor Daley Mad Marty? Personally I would prefer Richard J to Richard M! I grew up in the south suburbs of Chicago, but haven't lived in Illinois since Big Jim Thompson was governor and George Ryan's name was on my drivers license as Secretary of State!

Well i'm down here in Peoria, and you just KNOW that the design is going to have something to do with Chicago, even though the rest of Illinois, the MAJORITY of Illinois looks and is nothing like Chicago.

I agree. Heck I've only been to Chicago twice in my life. If I want to tour a big city St. Louis is only 90 minutes away and Memphis & Nashville are only 3 hrs each. No identity w/ the Chi around here. I liked the design w/ the deer and cardinal.
