The idea for this series of "Cover Paintings from a World That Never Was" originated from the dreams of artist Pete Von Sholly. While asleep he entered a store and found all the great things (comics, magazines, toys, and other childhood pleasures) that never really existed in our known universe. They were there within his very grasp; unsuspected treasures for the taking! Then as he awakens something awful happens - he didn't have any money, the treasures started to fade from the shelves or they weren't there when he returned and the store was closed down. Then all that is left is a fleeting memory of a treasure trove that existed only in his mind. These cards represent only a handful of the treasures that existed in "Earth-Von Sholly".
