Preorders are live, first print ships Nov.
I’m excited to share that preorders are now open for the second release of A Tribute to the Longneck Bottle, authorized by Jim Franklin!
I am proud to announce the majority of these sales will be going to Jim Franklin.
Jim and I are bringing six of his original paintings to print through an authorized second printing, published by OG Lone Star in collaboration with Jim himself and coordinated by the Austin Museum of Popular Culture. One of these paintings has never been released, and some are being offered larger than ever before! They will be 24" x 30", truly Texas-sized!
One of these, with the Golden Gate Bridge, has never been released!
I’ve pored over these images for more hours than I can count, working to restore the colors faithfully to Jim’s original paintings. Jim has approved the results, and Leea Mechling, director of the Austin Museum of Popular Culture, has said they look better than ever. We’ve also chosen paper worthy of the artwork for the first time.
Explore all six artworks and preorder here!
Use code SIXPACKOFLONGNECKS for $100 off your preorder of all six authorized prints!
The first of these prints will begin shipping in November 2026.
Each print is limited to 250 hand-numbered, and Jim is signing 25 of each as well. Hand-numbered prints are $175, and prints signed by Jim are $250.
Thank you for supporting this project. I’m proud to help bring these paintings into people’s homes and introduce Jim’s work to a new generation. I would have never started down this road years ago without a song of Willie's in my heart and Jim's ambitious visions in my mind.
Cheers, and Long Live Longnecks!
