Happy Birthday to my pal Josh!

These are the roughs that my pal Shag did, for his Rankin/Bass' Mad Monster Party print a few years back 🎃 We appeared together at a few wonderful events in his stores, that are documented in our book Rankin/Bass' Frosty the Snowman 50th anniversary scrapbook. I talked to him today and he has some great products being released in his store tomorrow, including a Retrogogo Halloween Tiki mask 👺 #joshagle #madmonsterparty #rankinbassproductions #shag #Halloween

Happy Birthday to my pal Shag! We hope to do something together soon! Josh says he went Surfing this am!

Smokey Sr. is pretty cool too (in the collection of Screen-Novelties) and Big! #smokeythebear #screennovelties #rankinbass

 I got a nice Collector's Call gift from my pal Shag and it is no Dumbo!   I hope to get back to The Shag Stores soon for business and fun!    You will see lots of Shag stuff in my episode of Collector's Call Sunday night at 9:30 pm Central time on Me TV!

Shag sent me some Swizzle sticks!

I don't drink but I sure like cool Advertising and Shag displays!  So does my son Josh!

My buddy Shag's 2nd Christmas card mailed showed up this morning 🤣 We were thinking on the same wavelength for the holidays 2018! #shag #christmascard

We were celebrating the release of this big guy in Palm Springs, CA a year ago today! 🎃👍

Shag: A to Z

UnitedNColor Presents: The Artist Shag Josh has been watching some SHAG interviews lately, after hanging his new print. He pointed out a 1st printing of my Making of Rudolph book on his bookshelf on the 5th shelf up, in this interview. You can also see the book in his family portrait in the book SHAG: The Art of Josh Agle (Chronicle books), which I showed to Josh over the weekend. #shag #themakingoftherankinbassholidayclassicRudolphtherednosedreindeer #book www.miserbros.com

THE SHAG STORES: Halloween tour!

 

 I said I would have some big news and am announcing it Exclusively here!   My friend SHAG is releasing a 50th Anniversary print of Rankin/Bass' Mad Monster Party!   It will be released October 14th at his West Hollywood store and I will be appearing there with him, and signing books, etc.  Exact times will follow shortly.   Then we are following that appearance with another appearance the following week on October 20th (date subject to change) at his Palm Springs store.  I asked Len Korobkin (Writer of the Mad Monster Party screenplay) to attend, but he is not sure he can work it into his schedule.   We are also expecting some Animagic figures to attend courtesy of Screen-Novelties.  This will be a couple of Huge Halloween parties for the West Coast!  The last time I appeared on the West Coast was at the Van Eaton Mad Monster Party Event in 2012, which was a big success!  So we will be celebrating Mad Monster Party's 50th on the West Coast Mid-October with Shag and then taking that celebration (and hopefully a SHAG print) to the East Coast for CHILLER THEATRE in New Jersey, the weekend before Halloween!

 This has been in the works for a long time and I am glad I can finally announce it!   I was a bit worried last week, when The Shag Store in Palm Springs had a fire that damage was estimated at $100,000.   I am happy to say that the store will be open and the event is set!

 

Looking forward to seeing my pal Josh Agle (SHAG) again!  The last time we met up, it was in Chicago and all over town, including my home in Oak Lawn.

 I think the MAD MONSTER PARTY print will look something like his wonderful H.R. Pufnstuf print!   I am not sure if there will be additional merchandise with the art on it yet.

 HAPPY HALLOWEEN!   Looking forward to seeing all the West Coast fans again!

SHAG has a Miser Bros piece in my 15th Anniversary book, that he originally did for his wife.  He produced a short run, signed print of it for our documentary campaign too!

One of the many cool perks we have to offer with our RANKIN/BASS DOCUMENTARY Campaign at INDIEGOGO is this cool hand-signed and numbered giclee print by our friend SHAG!   He has never made this art available before and it is a wonderful tribute to Rankin/Bass' MISER BROS!  Find out more about it right here:  The Enchanted Wold of RANKIN/BASS Documentary
