The cover for "Inherent Vice" comes from a pre-existing poster:
Cadillac Hearse Art Print

  "A 'Retired' Caddy Hearse Greets Daybreak at a Beach Surf Shop"

  is a colorful subtitle for this very popular and affordable laser  
art print.

The print is an open edition version of our acclaimed "Eternal

Summer" Limited Edition canvas gicléeprint. Double-matted in the mat

color of your choice and available in two standard frame sizes, this

vibrant laser print will be a source of enjoyment for years to come.

   Subtitled "A 'Retired' Caddy Hearse Greets Daybreak at a Beach

  Surf Shop", this vibrant open edition laser print was created, printed

and packaged on the Island of Maui. The small edition measures

8 x 10 inches and comes mounted in an 11 x 14 inch double mat.

The Large Edition print measures 11 x 14 inches and comes mounted

in a 16 x 20 inch double mat. The standard outer mat is white while

the inner red mat forms a border accenting the print's vibrant colors.

If you wish you can select a custom inner mat color at no additional

cost.  Click on the link to the left to see this print presented in a  
variety

of mat colors.

   Since the advent of the automobile age a century ago, the beach

cruiser has become a nostalgic presence found along ocean shorelines

worldwide. Usually old, and always rusted, the beach cruiser is an

integral part of the beach and surfing culture.  To those who cast

only a cursory glance, the cruiser is often seen as no more than an

unwelcome eyesore.  But to those who look beyond its rusty and faded

skin, the cruiser is truly the embodiment of a unique lifestyle marked

by sun, sand, salt and surf. Leisurely passing time with fellow cruisers

while their owner searches out that perfect wave is truly Paradise –

the Paradise of a beach cruiser.
