Hi All,
For enquiring minds:
Rob Wesel advertises this poster on his site and traded some
of the prints to Svend Bühl who also has it on his site.
It is taken from a newspaper, La Domenica Del Corriere,
October 6th 1946 - and Matteo tells me he has "the original"
though I could not tell from his English if he meant he owns
the original painting or has a copy of the newspaper from
that date.
Of course, as I knew and as Twink Monrad pointed out
to me, saguaros (the huge cactus of the Sonoran Desert in the
the Tucson area) do not grow in that the Holbrook region. I
noted that was not the only point of "artistic license" taken
by the artist. Still, a very entertaining image.
Y'all will be able to see it on my hammers page, due to
permission from Rob Wesel.
Best wishes, Michael
