POPE FRANCIS… The TOUR DE FRANCIS Series

This represents the first collaborative venture between The Grand Review studios and the inimitable illustrator Fred Lammers.

Fred knew that I was a fan, and I was never shy or quiet about how much I truly dug his work.  From that and via the magic of the internet, we’ve become friends.  A few years back, being that our studios are here in Philadelphia and the new Pope was coming for a much touted visit, I asked Fred if he would consider creating a series that tipped the hat to this Francis fellow and the new super weapon he had unleashed onto the world in general, and onto the Catholic world specifically.  Humor.  Pope Francis sort of tossed in this love bomb thing, and he did it with a grin, and it threw everybody off balance just long enough for alotta people to forget that they hated each other.  Neither me or Fred are Catholic in any way, shape or form, but as I was so fascinated by this guy, Fred agreed to give it a whirl.

The process of working together was a real hoot, and the first prints to come out of it were the surfer Pope LP cover and of course, the most easily recognizable car in the world alongside the Batmobile and the VW Beetle… the Popemobile!  Of course, Fred’s Popemobile is based on a stretched Meyers Manx dune buggy and has a 1961 looking Italian secret service agent suited up as the driver, and that is exactly what I was hoping he’d bring to the project.

The TOUR DE FRANCIS series is small.  Only 11 pieces.  In an interview at the time with the news media, I made it clear that everything we were doing was celebratory, not in any way disrespectful, and that 50 years from now I’d like to imagine people will look upon this work and smile as broadly then as they do now.

The venerable Historical Society of Pennsylvania purchased one copy each of the whole series for their permanent collection and we still sell these, regularly, to all sorts of folks, now two years after the Pope Francis mothership touched down along the Benjamin Franklin Parkway.

A last note, just for fun.  He stayed at the St. Charles Borromeo seminary which is literally around the corner from the ancient carriage house where our studios are on the western edge of Philadelphia.  We had gifted one of these works to them a few months before, to the delight of all according to their thank you letter.  Me and my wife and two doggies walked over to see his helicopter lift off.  It was behind the huge, thick hedges, and the trees and bushes were really whipping about from the wind as it made ready to ascend.  To our utter astonishment, one of those crazy Canadian four prop tilt wing military aircraft flew up into the air with Francis aboard.  Suddenly the whole world become THUNDERBIRDS ARE GO!!!

Some of the works are in the LP size, but the majority are not.  Treat yourself and a few friends to a few examples from the series.  They were and are instant classics!

 

NOTE... the other prints are shown for reference, and are available elsewhere on our Etsy page.  Enjoy!

No more cold coffee!
Color: Silver
Great price for all the nifty features - timer, auto shut-off, hot and hotter! Large button icons and digital temperature display are easy to see. My coffee and tea stay hot enough to drink without making multiple trips to the microwave because I got busy and let it get cold. New best friend!

i can’t believe how long i went without this
Color: Silver, Color: Silver
i never expected how much of a difference this item would or could make in my nightly tea routine. i’m a slow sipper and would normally have to get up and microwave my mug 1-2 times depending on how willing i was to stop everything i was doing and move out of my comfy spot to remedy the impending sad lukewarm experience. YALL! the temperature really does make it taste better (i already knew that) but now i can settle into my spot in cozy PEACE and take as long as i want to to enjoy my tea. i was worried if the lower price point compared to other options on amazon would mean it may be lacking in quality or function, but NOPE! just a genuinely good deal (about $10 at the time of this review) and the features are all there. yes yes yes, go ahead and treat yourself because this one is worth it.

SO FAR SO GOOD! :)
Color: Silver
This is a nifty little product. It heats up pretty quickly and really does keep my beverages warm or hot, perhaps it's because it's an AC plug-in rather than USB. :) The options for length of time & degree of heat are VERY beneficial & it's an easy "touch" control. For someone who forgets to "turn things off", the auto shutoff is ideal! (lol) It's flat, steady & doesn't take up much room. The only drawback for me is that the entire tray gets hot, not just the part that the mug sits on, otherwise I'd have given it not 5 but 10 stars! It will be interesting to see how long it lasts though. :)
