Ahem......NOT SHAG! Chad Otis is the artist.

Sorry I can't tell the difference!

I can.

The colors are the first giveaway.

Just because this is 50's Commercial style illustration art, doesn't mean it looks like SHAG. It doesn't
It's similar in style , but it's not quite SHAG.

SHAG-like, maybe, but not SHAG.

It's a bit more than "Shag-like" to me but I'm one of those weird mid-century collector dorks that wants nothing to do with the revival. Old school baby! I posted it more to show that the style is everywhere..even if it's not Shag himself. I can't help from thinking that with all of the fakes, phoneys, tributes, and real things out there the market is flooded and you won't be able to give the stuff away. If you love it..buy it, but you can't look at them as investments or you might end up like the crazy beanie baby people!
