A gift of Al Dorne art is a gift friends can always use so today friends, I'm re-gifting you with Brian's beautiful scan. Its a perfect fit to accompany this other Xmas-themed Dorne ad I was holding back until the Countdown to Christmas.
They're both now tucked away in my Albert Dorne Flickr set for your viewing pleasure.

The countdown with Christmas pictures is a very pleasant idea.Thank you for doing this.
Thanks mir - I appreciate your comment! :-)
Every time I see an Albert Dorne illustration, I'm struck by what pleasure he obviously took in creating pictures. I suppose some might find his imagery corny, but he was such a cool draughtsman. Years ago I was lucky enough to view some original Dorne drawings, in the collection of Ben & Jane Eisendtadt -- a great experience. Thanks again, Leif.
How lucky for you to get to see some Dorne originals, Neil! I agree with you about the obvious pleasure he must have taken in the act of picture creation - that certainly speaks to his almost legendary childhood remark about his intentions to become a famous artist, doesn't it?
And a lot of his work is hokey but so what, I say! ;-)
