I believe he did this fast food A-frame rendering I showed in the Book of Tiki.... ...and did some of the most expressionistic coffee shop sketches for the firm, real whacky stuff!: You can tell his style apart by his "exploding" palm trees and his pointy-legged people. I have always loved this man's work, and he is held in highest regard by mid-century modern fans and authors like Charles Phoenix, Alan Hess, Chris Nichols and John English.
