Old Usagi one page

Found an old comic book with an Usagi Yojimbo short on the back.
From Usagi's Fantagraphics era even.
In it, Usagi explained ancient Japan's Feudal system.
I'd love to post it but since it's an entire comic I don't know if it's safe... the text is blurry in the photo though...
EDIT: Here goes nothing. If the picture size is a problem I can fire up my old computer and scan it properly.
Large photograph is large, so here's a URL. I should properly scan it instead.

Is that the one-page strip in which Usagi meets then kills that "lizard man"? It was originally run as an ad for the first Usagi T-shirt, then later for the Fantagraphics UY series.

I've moved this topic and renamed it because the "Art Gallery" forum is for people showing off their original Stan art, not for scanning and asking about actual printed materials. I've seen the page before though, can't remember which issue it's in... where Usagi goes and accidentally kills the lizard because he thinks he's been rude heh...

That page has been reprinted in "The Art of Usagi Yojimbo"; and he does not kill him accidentally, but, like Groo, starts thinking after killing...though, unlike Groo, he did the right thing: that lizard man definetly had been rude

Well, I mean "accidentally" in the sense that Usagi didn't think things through first. And who knows, it could have been a greeting. There are some strange things on this planet that people can do to offend each other, depending on the country Thomas
