Me. The top is wood, the bottom is linocut. Like I said, I have to be good at at least one thing.

Excellent Roger! Really nice work! I was a printmaking major in art school - did all forms of printing (silk-screens, etchings, lino/wood cuts) but mainly focused on stone lithography. I did a pretty big lino-cut in high-school art room of Jimi Hendrix!

Heck no!
I'm sure they charged that guy a pretty penny for 'decorative surfacing' ... (I would!) He obviously has the bucks and wanted a unique show-off surface "look" for shooting pics of that beautiful automobile. I actually like the way it looks ... just curious how it will age.

Thanks. While the colors aren’t identical, my Reverse Thunderbird is Gibson Cherry, so I went with the burgundy.

So iconic! Definitely Bond.
My wife did a bit of lithography. I only did relief and intaglio. These days, it’s 90% relief.Excellent Roger! Really nice work!

Those look like sidewinder pickups.....unless they're just covers?
13-speeds are great, almost as good as 18s

Indeed. I loved their live album, which this was from. Never got to see them live, but I bet it was something.
Now I'm confused.... We're talking playing lefty Thunderbirds, right?Yep.
The right side while driving on the left, is right (correct)
I'd like one as well. You could let it set out with the keys in it and hardly anyone (no one under 45 anyway), would be able to get it going. It would be a great youbube moment watching them try to get it in "drive."
Lol nah, I’m a Chevy guy
Any of you actually try flipping yourself the bird?
wait, I mean playing with the other hand?
semantically making poor choices today…
