This is when Bamboo Ben was in his "vision quest carving days" during the 70's.

Thanks Unga Bunga for the info. Did he use that decal a lot or am I thinking of something else.

I have no idea why but that decal looks familiar to me too. Maybe it just looks familiar because you said it looks familiar lol? Let us know if you find out where it's from.

Sort of looks like the Vernor's Ginger Ale gnome. Maybe that's why it looks familiar?

O.K. someone out there needs to figure this out soon! It's driving me nuts, I know I've seen it before to. This may just confuse things but it sure reminds me of Kim Deitch's work.
