Jim Black has gone missing.
The disgraced former House speaker's portrait is no longer hanging on the wall in the 1300 Court of the General Assembly.
When Dome last checked, the picture had been between former speakers Harold Brubaker and Richard Morgan, on the bottom row.
The portrait gallery features every speaker since 1963.
(Apologies for the quality of the photo, but it was taken on my Treo.)
Update: House Speaker Joe Hackney's spokesman says the photo was taken down by housekeeping to change the dates listed on the matte. The photos of Marc Basnight and Beverly Perdue have also been taken down.
