>> Get to know Shag, why don't ya? The Los Angeles-based gallery and poster arteeest -- born Josh Agle -- recreates the colorful, angular commercial art of the late 1950s-early 1960s with an accuracy that borders on the uncanny. He claims the mighty Ward Kimball as an influence -- that's a fast way to make me your buddy -- loves the music of Astrud Gilberto and lives in a "tiki bar/supervillain's lair." His book of plates, "Supersonic Swingers", is a must have for anyone who's ever dreamed of flying a Pan Am clipper to Rio, being a Bond villain or Bond girl, or simply owning a set of original Tiki mugs.
