This Don the Beachcomber image came from a vintage postcard.This was only done as a
test to check the difference between scanning a label vs. a postcard .This postcard
was much more difficult to scan and clean the image up, maybe because it's a different
type of paper or print process I am not really sure.The original Don image was derived
from Don's rum bottle label.Don Beach later decided to use this image as a postcard that
was offered in the restaurant gift shops and at the cash register in many of his
locations .This is not for re- sale and was only done as a test.I believe the colors
came out bright and vivid.Another very cool iconic poly pop image for sure.
