 * German artist Augustin von Moersperg paints a watercolour copy of a church window in Hamelin, Germany. It will become the earliest known depiction of the Pied Piper, clearly showing his distinctive costume of red, blue, and yellow motley.  A copy of the painting will hang in Spellman's Magical Museum of the Circus in 2009.  (known history, SJA: The Day of the Clown)
