Tap To Enlarge - Prized Possessions "The Conductor" created by Jon Adams, 1961, using felt-tip markers. Jon was in the U.S. Army stationed in Landshut, Germany at the time. Because Herman McDaniel, a fellow G.I. living down the hall, liked the work so much that he came to see it almost every day, Jon gave McDaniel the work when McDaniel returned to the U.S.
