I should have included the image file with the first post. That would have avoided the inital confusion.

I sent an email off to his foundation, and we'll see what they have to say about the poster, or possibly a print, availability. I'll let you guys know, in case anyone else might be interested in the image.

You're most welcome.

It's so very strange to me how so many odd little things that I find myself drawn to, I will be a fan of for years on end, and then suddenly, they bloom into a social fad of some kind: I followed Bettie Page for decades, and even chatted back and forth with Dave Stevens about her back in the 1980's, via snail mail. Then, Dave put her in the Rocketeer comic, and BOOM! Suddenly she's everywhere. I've been a zeppelin fanatic since almost the day I was born, and now steampunk comes along and practically turns them into fetish objects! My life seems to be filled with examples of this. I bought an original one sheet for Plan 9 From Outer Space for $12 bucks at a flea market when I was a kid, mostly because it was a Bela Lugosi/Vampira teamup... and a few years later the Golden Turkey book comes out and the price of that movie's memorabilia skyrockets! I bought multiple first prinintgs of the first few issues of TMNT, just thinking they were kinda cute... five years later, I sold the extra copies off (just before the movie came out) to come up with the $5k for my first house...

(I'm sure you guys have stories like this to tell as well.)

I don't know why I like the things that I do... but like Ray Bradbury with his beloved Buck Rogers comic strips, I've learned to just roll with these feelings when they crop up. Collecting this stuff makes me happy. For some reason, I just seem to have a knack for being attracted to things that become pop phenomenons.
