[comp.text.desktop] Dover Press Clip Art Source??

*** Please reply to the address in my .sig, as I do not read this
    group often.  Thanks.

(I hope this is the correct newsgroup to post this request)

Recently, I was looking through a DAK (I think) catalog, and there
was some insane offer for a mouse, GEM, GEM Publisher, etc....
along with all that, there was mention of a set of disks full of
Dover Press Clip Art.

This struck me as odd, as Dover Press are images which generally
are "victorian" looking, but can be incorporated into documents
without having to get permission to use them. 

Generally, Dover Press images come in books, each with a theme
(e.g, hands, machines, men, women, etc....) and you can cut and
paste the images onto the pages of your documents.  

I am on a project where we are producing some rather large documents
with Ventura.  Often we "dress up" some white space with a small
Dover Press image.  Figures accompanying the text are generally
created (or re-created) with a drawing package or a scanner.
There have been times when I have been tempted to use the scanner
to pull in some Dover pieces, but have not thought it worth the
trouble.  

My question is this:  Is there a source where I can get Dover Press
Clip Art that I can just suck right into Ventura??

My guess is yes, but I have no idea where to begin my search.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
