Both sets of illustrations are über cool! I am rather surprised to see those Pearl Jusem illustrations of the braless girl in a 1956 MIT publication! Very forward of them... Maybe the illustrations were added in the 70s edition?

I actually went fly fishing with Sheridan Anderson in Tuolumne in 1974. He drove us up to where Gaylor Creek flows through some pipes under Tioga Road towards the Pass in his old truck with the camper shell. We followed the Creek uphill toward Gaylor Lakes and he showed me a technique called "dapping" or something like that? We got on our knees and advanced toward the edge of the creek through the grass and cast our flies into the edge of the creek from 20 feet away ('where the trout couldn't hear us', said Sheridan). And I'll be damned, we were pulling 20" Lake trout out of a little stream that's barely three feet wide. The big Rainbows evidently swim down from Gaylor Lakes and hang out in the tiny outlet stream to feed around sunset.
One thing for certain: Sheridan sure did know how to fly fish! I still have the same 1947 vintage bamboo fly rod downstairs that I used with Sheridan and want to put it to good use this summer up in the Sierra. Would love to hit Gaylor Creek again about sunset near the end of summer.

I found these in early 1970's Vulgarian Digests.

Sorry it's taken this long to get these prints scanned. Midori sent them to me with some others, 2 of which I've temporarily misplaced. But here are three that will appeal to most here:
Midori wrote, "Sheridan caught a big trout and brought it to me. I cooked it and made a box lunch and 3 of us went for a picnic. We had a great time. The pic of Toshio & me is taken by him. Toshio & Sheridan is for the first time they met."
There are no references to these next 2 pix.
I assume that this one is of Sheridan & Toshio, taken by Midori.
Sheridan and an unnamed fishing buddy. The boat has a CF registration.

A couple of great cartoons from Richard Fisher.
Anyone familiar with Richard Fisher? I bought these from a seller in New Zealand so he may a southern hemisphere talent.

Fritz,
Did anyone win that auction?
If you still have the page listing or seller contact information please send it to me as the seller would be a good place to start tracking Mr. Fisher.

Did the Tee Shirt plan ever happen?
If so, where can you get one?
I'm in.

Just been swamped but the shirts are printed and all is ready to go. Just need to launch the website in the next week or so.
