One image to represent America...

Imagine you're quintessential Englishman Stephen Fry - who, naturally, is a geek of Jewish Hungarian stock. He's spent the last few months travelling the land of the United States, and naturally, has written a book and TV programme about it.

Now you have to publicise said book in a book launch. What's the one image of America you need to sell the book to a British press? Find out.

This - no doubt hilarious - book joins other ones on the shelves dedicated to explaining America to a European readership. Although given the huge amount of press coverage the American elections get in the UK, I'm not sure anything needs explaining.
