Has anyone seen a drawing by Harold James Clemmon of an MG TC. It is green exterior and interior. It is 23 1/4" x 22 1/2".
Does anyone know where I can purchase one? Thanks.

The artist is Harold James Cleworth and the owner of the artist's model is
Don Wasserman of San Francisco and the Abingdon Rough Riders Touring Society
(our badge is on the badge bar). He still owns the car along with a special
bodied N and two D types, as well as a Singer Lemans coupe and a few other
exotics.
The painting was done about 25-30 years ago and printed by Tea Lautrec
Lithographers,San Francisco, since gone out of business. Cleworth did a
number of cars. Along with the Wasserman TC, I have a gullwing Mercedes,
Porsche Speedster and an autographed copy of the Maharajah's red & black
Duesenberg.
I understand that Wasserman and Cleworth parted on unfriendly terms when
Wasserman demanded payment for using his car as the model
One of the owners of the defunct Tea Lautrec is a personal friend and has a
very large collection of posters from the company. I'm sure they are all
rock concert posters, as Bill graham used them exclusively, but I will ask if
he has any of the MG.
