I have sent Bill Griffith photographs of some of my roadside trips - most notably, a location in western Wisconsin that fabricates and sells those giant fiberglass advertising figures. Griffith later based some of his Zippy comic panels on those pictures. The following link is for two of those strips (he gives thanks to me in tiny letters in the middle panels)

Of the many small victories one experiences in life, having my name in a Zippy comic strip has been one of my personal favorites - and one of those thrills that many people do not quite understand. I may send him some other pictures of tiki signs that I have.
