Items I will miss...

It is not often you can blend blasphemy, obscenity and great art in one charming piece. I have had the pleasure of cataloguing a collection from one of the original artists for National Lampoon. In addition to some wonderful books and bits of '60s underground art was a cache of original art from Lampoon.
Saint Onan, shown here, was from the early 1970s "Religion" issue that included three "Saints Who Should Have Been." A truly brilliant (and horrid) item. I designed a shadow box that allowed me to backlight it at shows.
As I predicted (and feared), it did not make it back from NY. I miss it in all its completely inappropriate brilliance.
