There is a vendor (Bill Webner) from Ohio who has the rights to all the John Muir artwork. -----Original Message----- From: Vanagon Mailing List [mailto:vanagon@gerry.vanagon.com] On Behalf Of Ryan Shawley Sent: Tuesday, September 19, 2006 7:53 PM To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: Re: John Muir T shirts available? FWIW Many years ago I picked up a shirt at a Phish show that had the picture of the guy driving the bug that split in half and he's picking up the other half, "Split Open and Melt". I loved the print but the shirt never quite fit right, my wife wears it around to clean and what not. The illustrator for the Muir books was Peter Aschwanden. Go to http://www.freenewmexican.com/news/36012.html to read his obit. Ralph Steadman was the illustrator for many of Hunter S. Thompsons books and they're pretty cool, though no VW content.
