If so, do you know where it was published originally? have these been pulled from a book? so many questions...sorry:) Yes, Sven used two of the images in "BOT", if I am correct. The "art" image is the inside cover and "dwellings" is seen inside, first third of the book, not sure on page. The ones I just stole are marked on the back "Galeria Sudamericana NYC", I believe Pacific House produced the copies. Nice score Midnite! Reeeeally top shelf prints!! I saw you window shopping but I didn't enter the store Yeah, once in a while I gets lucky, and no need to visit the doctor this time. I've always like the images and the artist, there's a connection to "tiki" and also to San Francisco. If only a club sandwich were somehow involved, nirvana. Perhaps the other collectors stayed away after they saw koalacharms had left his mark. Don't fear the reaper, be afraid of the koala! midnite
