So sorry to hear about the death of Yossarian. If we'd known he was in the neighborhood all these years, we'd have LOVED to have him do stuff with The SHADOW.
His stuff was GREAT and he was always RIGHT ON....
RIP to Austin John Marshall, Artist who painted a number of gates for bars, also the side of the Lower East Side People's Credit Union on Avenue B, a fixture of the neighborhood for 30 years.
