   Oh man; he was an icon in the industry and I loved his work.  You   
   could tell a lot of the times, without looking at the credits, when he   
   worked on something.  That's rare in the industry to tell... which   
   shows just how good he was.   
      
   He did sign for me years ago and was a good signer. I'd sent something   
   cheap and he sent back a gorgeous photo in its place. I guess he'd   
   been ill and didn't sign anymore.
