The detailing is impeccable! Convention specific art is great as people's memories of those early shows before the internet tend to fade with time.

I got in touch with the artist Pete Lyon about a couple of pieces of his art I acquired and he was very pleased to see them again. He said "I have a fair copy of the Bob Shaw cartoon, and you are right about its provenance, its a pleasure to see that these works are still around and of some worth. So I am pleased to be able to add that to my archive."
