Important ETA 6/11/13: So, it turns out that Google has an archive of their doodles (of course), so you can always look for old Google doodles here: http://www.google.com/doodles/.
In fact, it's better than that: some of the doodles, if you click on them, give you in-depth information about the process of creating the doodle. (Here's info about the complicated Sendak doodle!) Not to mention the locations where it was visible, which I find interesting. I'm sorry the doodle for Federico García Lorca's 115th birthday was only visible in Spain! I had a cat named after him when I was a kid.
Anyway. Thanks JD, ever trusty and reliable!
