hard to believe he's been gone 20 years.
I wrote to Johnson in the summer of 1977 inviting him to contribute to the catalog for Ira Joel Haber's retrospective at Kent State which I was editing. he sent a piece which we used. I returnd the original art to him per his instruction.
this is the only piece of his I own:
when the University Libraries got rid of its card catalog in the early 1990s I got the idea of selecting some cards to send to the authors for signatures. as a fundraiser for Special Collections we sold the cards.
among those I purchased was this one with Johnson's signature backwards & snaking from front of card to rear.
