World's largest anaglyph?

Yesterday, I participated in the Miami Herald's latest "Tropic Hunt"
game. It is a sort of scavanger hunt on a massive scale which is held
every 2 years or so. Thousands of people spent Sunday afternoon
searching all over downtown Miami on foot, looking for the 6 big puzzle
pieces, each piece a puzzle itself. The winners at the end of the day
won air trips and vacations. 
        I won't go into the rules or play of the game here, but the neatest
thing for me was that one of the puzzle pieces was a huge, 30 by 40-foot
banner with giant, red-blue 3-D drawings on it, requiring the use of
red-blue glasses. The banner was attached to the side of a huge bank
building. Each of the drawings was at a different level of depth. 
Helpers handed out 3-D glasses to everyone. While hundreds of people at
a time stared at the banner a song was playing over a loudspeaker:
"Close to You". The proper drawing then, of course, was the one that
appeared closest.
        When I get my photos back I'll scan them and attach them to the 3-D
section of my home page:
