Cartoons was a great publication. I remember loaning my stack to a friend and never getting any of them back to this day. Luckily I lived in the same town as George and became friends through the years. He is aces and a blast to hear tell stories. George and his family are great people and I am blessed to know another person more talented than I. haha
Met him a couple of times at Phila area shows. My wife bought herself a print ( which he signed for her) called Man's Best Friend of a bunch of dogs wrenching on a rod while he sits back in a chair. Super nice guy
My favorite. "into it" A guy working IN his motor with one arm out of the header reaching for a wrench the other header his legs are hanging out of. It hangs in my office so I can see it everyday
Thanks in part to Trosley my CarToons collection used to be my prize possesion but due to a 'lifestyle' change in the 70's I switched over to 'The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers' and now I cant remember what happened to my CarToons!
Was familiar with his work in CARtoons, and then later in VW Trends. Didn't know he freelanced for Hustler until just a couple years ago. Pretty sure Shawn Kerri worked both sides of the bizz too.
Well guys, I first saw Trosley works in adult mags, didn't see his car art 'til later, but the style was still recognizable! You all have a safe and Merry Christmas, Cat
I had one of his old Hustler cartoons framed on my garage wall years ago. The cartoon was of two old 1800's trappers standing over a sprung/closed Beartrap with a******* pair of balls stuck in the teeth, one trapper was saying to the other... "Somewhere out there is one mean*****ing bear"
George rules! I'm fortunate to live so close to him and see him every now and then. Great guy. Very down to earth and a good business man to boot. I enjoy hanging out with him. Spike
when my wife found out my plans for the garage included heat,plumbing and a large loft,she asked if I had been looking at old Krass and Bernie cartoons!
