Glaser designed two posters to promote the 1985 edition of Creatures Large and Small, an annual end-of-summer benefit exhibition for the Animal Rescue Fund at Elaine Benson Gallery in Bridgehampton, New York that was then in its fifth year. Both illustrations are slightly unconventional—this one shows Glaser’s pet cat and a rabbit staring determinedly at the viewer from the bed where their owner, modeled off of Glaser’s wife, sleeps on under a quilt patterned with citrus slices; the other shows Glaser’s cat eyeing the viewer with her head upside down on the floor.
