Very nice to find this posting, and others like it. John Stump is my uncle (he just recently passed away)... and it's great to see that you all appreciate the humor in his art. His sharp wit will undoubtedly make up most of my lasting memories of him. I have years of christmas and birthday cards that contained similar (though much less extensive) works as faerie's aire.
Anyway, just wanted to say how good it is to see posts like yours.
