Last year for our Burning Man theme camp, the United States Potsal Service, [livejournal.com profile] mrrranda created a papier-mache mailbox in the form of a deep sea angler. I don't know if I have a photograph anywhere, though.

We saw a lecture at the university last year from an artist who was in charge of illustrations for a set of encyclopedias covering animal life. He had a photograph of a deep sea angler specimen that was sent to him to draw from--it was about about a centimeter long. Not a particularly frightening example, in spite of the shape! Yet I've read that they can grow to be a meter or more, which would be more than a little disturbing when seen up close.
