A Bit of History - Work in Progress!

The image Bumper Stickeryou just clicked on was created by The Olszewski Fan Club.  It is actually a copy of a Bumper Sticker which was one of many items created, produced, and sold by the Club to fans or given as part of their membership when the Fan Club was very active.  During the Goebel Miniature Era from 1980-1994 there were clubs which focused their members on discussing, analyzing, promoting, and sharing information about Olszewski and his art.
