Re: Never saw a ROTH signed like this!

I Have! I had the oppurtunity to work with Mr. Roth before he passed. We were working on a definative catalog of his "Rat Fink" Character from 1960 - 1980.

His signature almost always includes "the flies"!

The HR chips are a reproduction of the cars he designed and were produced in limited quantity by the "Johnny Lighting" company. Ed, and his family were ticked off that the "Lightning" cars featured a figure that looked more like "COOP" than him!

Our last coversation was about "Wierdos" and "Rat Fink". He passed a few days later.

Ed was a phenominal Man!

I still miss him!
