I won't be stoppin' at boarding houses where there's warm beds and hot grub on the table. I'll be traveling light and eatin' fast. What little sleeping is done will take place on the ground. This head board reminds me very little of the time I was forced to share a bed with Grandma Turner.
Excellent work...as usual. I always enjoy the way you incorporate things into your glass work. It inspires me to re-adjust my thinking !!

I built an eating place, called "The Green Frog", started callin' myself Blake.

The Green Frog had one billiard table, served ladies and men, both.
Mostly men. Tried runnin' it myself for awhile, but, couldn't keep good help.
I never did learn how to buy meat.

I'd give three dollars right now for a pickled buffalo tongue....

I was hoping you would have a position open for a matradee....times being what they are. I have references. I used to slop tables at The Original Greaser Bob's Dugout.

The only job you're gettin' around here is pushin' up daisys from a pine box...

NOW GET OUT!!

If you can't find me I'll be sitting in the corner of the Green Frog.

Probably with those Dickinson boys....they like to pull a cork!

throw you in the pig pen and you come out vice president of the hogs.

A saucy line will not get you far with me....you hand out very little sugar with your pronouncements.

That may make you a big noise in that state; in California you
should mind that your Arizona trappings and title do not make
you an object of fun.

If you wet your comb, you might tame that cowlick.

We have no rodeo clowns in Arizona.

I saw a document. It was all in order, seals, signatures, everything! One thing though, in very small print, there is a short clause...

We're just a bunch of weary gilders.....

Brilliant weekend Larry, you are a very good host and a superb artist of reverse glass, enjoyed every minute of our visit.

Thanks
Dave

I've never seen so many men wasted so badly.

Couple years back, we did up this little commemorative piece.
Found this better frame for it over at Mantiques, in Niles, CA.
I think this new frames makes this piece a lot better!
Artwork for it was by Ken Davis....aka Stubby Preston....

You can keep on as you are....

(You can see the previous frame on page 21 of this thread.)

Well now Mr. Blake,

That sure adds a spit shine to it... I'll tell you what.

I thought Rick Glawson was partial to a frame that had a very similar look.

I see it all clear as crystal.

Just think of it, pretty soon you'll be written up in all the history books.

Larry White · Post by **Larry White** » Sat Feb 15, 2014 4:24 pm

Thanks all you Dead Man fans!

This Original Dead Man post has hit 100,000 views!

Pretty soon, we'll be posting something worth looking at....

....but I don't know!

....100,000...& one....every man's got a right to make a profit...

YEE HAW!

When I went down to Daine's this last weekend...well, I received...present.
A present from one Roderick "The Kid" Treece....didn't take me too long to fix
it right up!

Thanks Rod!

How come Mr Black hasn't given no description about no gathering this year?

Rich Hawthorne · Post by **Rich Hawthorne** » Wed Jun 11, 2014 1:43 pm

Ya think maybe he's been in the saloon? Looks like the kinda place that swallows up a fella. I bet that sign blinds em on the way in an they can't find the door out ... not that they'd wanna leave ....

very nice sign by the kid. especially like the crackle finish

Roderick Treece · Post by **Roderick Treece** » Wed Jun 11, 2014 2:43 pm

He's to busy out in the woods stealin more dam trees.

Larry White · Post by **Larry White** » Wed Jun 11, 2014 3:55 pm

I appreciate humor, boys...
but I'm beginning to think you're cuttin' it a might thin....

Careful now! You're starting to get my dander up!

...call me yellow..leave me to dry and blow away...SING A SONG ABOUT IT?!

I'll get out!

I'll get out!!

Did up this little ditty of one of our Dead Men mottoes...

Got the frame with the 100+ year old glass in it at an estate sale for $50.

Up next is a companion piece to this one, which will say, "If that's the card you're dealt...That's the cards you play." !
