1940s Tapestries
Description: In the early '40s, C.S. (Clarence) "Turby" Turbeville and Ike Walker fished their local Texas lakes and found themselves working to improve existing lure designs to work better in their local fishing spots. After coming up with a new design altogether that proved to be highly effective, friends began requesting them, and soon after, so did local stores. Seeing the potential, these two north Texas fishermen set up in a garage in 1944, working nights making their new lures as Bomber Bait Co. In 1946, the Bomber Bait Co. was incorporated, and new machine processes were developed. A year later, Bomber was already making 1,000 lures a day – a significant output for a product that had yet to see national advertising!

Description: My film poster for The Third Man is my tribute to one of the greatest films of all time, and my very favorite film noir. From the eerie, unique zither music soundtrack to the striking cinematography to the beautiful Vienna, Austria setting to the brilliant writing and directing to the exceptional acting, The Third Man is, quite simply, a perfect film. And Orson Welles was a big part of this perfection.
