Description: 1965 Richter Artcraft Inc. Guitarist AKA Robert Johnson Waves 3D Pop Art Picture. Richter Artcraft Inc. was sold in stores from the mid-1950s until the mid-1960s. Artcraft has recently gotten notice for its extreme kitsch factor. The 3D Picture line was produced for just a moment in time. The pictures are made from thick layers of painted-resin mounted on thin wooden particle board. They have no given names and they were often not numbered. The theory is, this is a likeness of Robert Johnson playing his guitar in waves. Fact or Fiction who knows? But the KITSCH FACTOR is off the charts. Robert Johnson (1911 1938) is recognized as a master of the blues and one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century. Johnson has been called the first ever rock star. Legend is, Johnson sold his soul to the devil to achieve musical success. Johnson died mysteriously (27 years old) of unknown causes just shortly after starting to receive some notoriety. A true Rock history legend wrapped in a mystery. A RARE 60s Rock-Pop-Kitsch gem.
