Bruce Bomberger, Stan Galli and Charles Allen worked here and did some of the Chevy illustrations. I have a couple originals hanging on my wall.<BR/>It looks like you have a great archive of ads. I'd be interested in talking more.<BR/>Bruce<BR/>bruce@phcreative.comBruce Hettemahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11528651482236878527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8929049468412686061.post-49675180525698570562008-05-02T12:32:00.000-04:002008-05-02T12:32:00.000-04:00Jim,Thanks for the great site.

I have fond memories of working at my father's art studio that created some of these ads (from the seventies)<BR/><BR/>My summer job was to be a "Mat Rat" which meant I cleaned the artist's paint trays and emptied their water bowls every morning and also mounted and matted their finsished artwork for presentation to the clients.<BR/><BR/>It was amazing to see an artist start with a blank board and over a few days watch one of these illustrations come to life.<BR/><BR/>Been a long time since we worked together at Campbell-Ewald, and I am glad to see you are doing well.<BR/><BR/>Ty Damon II<BR/>tydamon@mac.comTy 2https://www.blogger.com/profile/13156281595520131465noreply@blogger.com
