I came across this the other day and thought it was kind of cute:

	White to play and win.

         BLACK (lower case)
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+

+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+       
|   |   | b |   |   | R |   | p |
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+      
|   |   |   |   |   |   | p |   |      
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+      
|   |   |   |   |   |   | k |   |

|   |   | r |   |   |   | P | N |      
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+

+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+     
|   |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |      
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+      
         WHITE (upper case)
