Red Buck, Gold Bond—Better Daze Ahead

My dad, a native New Yorker and stockbroker with 40+ years in the business, began this composition nearly ten years ago, after he took a neon course at Brooklyn's UrbanGlass.

The composition found a home in his midtown office where colleagues were mystified — and lured — by the red glow emanating from his otherwise standard-issue working quarters. Over the years, he added stock certificates and mementos of the market to the fiery dollar sign.
Now "Red Buck, Gold Bond" is on display on Wall Street, at the Museum of American Finance [http://www.moaf.org].

The mixed media composition will be up for another month or two. And the artist will be on hand to answer questions on Saturday, May 16, from 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. in the Museum bookstore.

Come check out the Ouija board, horseshoe and the fine print:
"Hardship and controversy are part of our American heritage. So is overcoming them."

And, if you'd like, you can make Red Buck your own.
