Paris had this unnamed gargantuan invader. In the foreground, a Van Dyke-bearded, top-hatted anatomical spare part flees from impending carnage, his method of self-propulsion unknown.Spot illustration, Columbia Coda, Nov-Dec. 1943, having something to do with composer Frederick Delius—but after reading the booklet's accompanying text, we're not certain what.

Your text recast as a beatnik poem:
Paris had this unnamed
gargantuan invader.
In the foreground,
a Van Dyke-bearded,
top-hatted anatomical
spare part
flees
from impending
carnage, his method of self-propulsion
unknown.
I wish I was better at Haiku, because this is just screaming out for haiku-ization.
Above Paris
The name-less monster
Scares Van Dyke

"... I don't even have the syllables right. :("

When I was yore Age laddie we dint have all this emoticons crap. We had to gesture with our FINGERS. And we were always UNDERSTOOD.
