Posing with a model for The unicorn in the garden, it looks like. Wow...

I tracked down Bob Dranko's children's bookBlues for the Medicine man a year or two ago; some beautifully designed illustration. I should probably do my duty to the community and post some scans from it!

Yes, that's UNICORN but they didn't actually make these for the films. This was a publicity stunt that LOOK magazine did where they brought some sort of clay to the studio and did a photoshoot with the artists. I have the article somewhere around here. The Sturtevant/Burness photo is from the same article.

I also have that Dranko book. To me, Dranko's illustrations in there feel like KING OF THE HILL characters. I'll let you scan it in and we can see what everybody else thinks.
