Seen his artwork for years in magazines, some cool stuff. You have a huge collection there. Do yourself a favor and go and do an introduction and let us know about yourself or your going to get rode hard. Top of the page where it says new to the HAMB introduce yourself. Welcome aboard.

 

Awesome collection! Welcome to the HAMB!

 

Cool stuff, I have always loved Trosley's unique take on automotive art. You can recognize a Troz drawing from a hundred feet away.

You might even have a picture of my car in the customer art pictures. My wife surprised me with a color drawing of mine for christmas two years ago. hangs in my living room now & a copy on the wall of the garage.

 

What an awesome collection! That's cool.

A long time fan of his work, I finally bought a print from Trosley last year; the old rod in the garage with the dude peeking at it through the window... autographed. I'm about ready to have him do up a custom one for me.

 

I've seen his work in Hustler magazine also....

 

Very cool collection.I understand your passion. You should be the president of the Trosley fan club.

 

Has he posted on here recently? Have not seen him.

 

I have only one, but had to have it.

 

I grew up admiring Trosley in Cartoons...then when I discovered Hustler, there he was again.

LMAO

 

WOW! Holy crap!

 

GT is just great; i think one of the car companies that has balls/ovaries should hire him to do the styling.

2) i've learned quite a lot about cars from just reading K+B.

a) But how does he address the fact that these are two adult males still living together after all these years? It's got to be at least 30 years.

 

Well, Krass and Bernie were started in 1975 and were patterned after George (Bernie) and his brother Harold (Krass). The newer episodes in Car Craft are still drawn as if the guys are stuck in the 70's. They haven't aged, they still wear the same clothes, and work on the same era cars.

 

Holy Sh!t that a bunch of cool Trosley art, Trosley's one Thee Inland Emperors favorite artist. In fact one of our club members, John (Jade Idol) loves Trosley art so much that had him draw up version of our club logo a couple of years back.​

 

George is my friend... hahaha

Spike

 

payne.. I didnt know johnny had george do that! so cool..


George Trosley is the man! Krass and Bernie rule!
I met george a few years ago at one of the first the hot rod hoe downs.. when I still had the Jakeo'page interior in my 40.. the next time we met he asked if I would like him to sign one of the interior panels..
this is the passanger front door panel from my 40 ford I choose this piece of artwork for my "wifes" side of the car!..

 

If you don't like Trosley's work you are a moron!!!!

 

love trosley. even his non-car related stuff.

 

That's really Bitchin'... fill us in with your association with him.

 

I'd love to have a T-shirt with that '57 on it!!!!

 

The "Tros" lives approx 1/2 hour from me--we see each other at car shows. He is a down to earth guy.

He is a talented man for sure.

 

He needs to start selling t-shirts with his work on them... He could make $$$$$$$$$$$$ and then some!

 

George has all of his artwork prints, t-shirts, garage signs, books, and CD's on his website. Check him out at www.georgetrosley.com

 

Does he still do 'toons for Hustler Magazine???

 

Yes. 30+ years and counting

 

I met George at the Kahunaville car show a few years back. He walked up to me and asked if that was my 40 (it was). He told me he loved the flames on it. I thought "well...... I must be doing something right!

 

actually, Hustler was where i FIRST saw his work. damn good artist and a razor sharp wit.

 

Forgot to post the one he did of my 1967 Firebird that I'm working on.

 

Tell George this,If it wasnt for him teaching me how to draw cars and He was the originater of getting me into cars at the age of 12.Loved the cartoons mag,I use to walk to 7 eleven every month .......Im 43 now........................

 

Love your avatar, did he do it also?
