Bogus Slogan Poster #28 - Inside View


The Hiawatha of the Milwaukee Road fame graces our Shank Hall Bogus Slogan Poster. This 3/4 photo gives evidence to the power, speed and beauty of steam rail. Gears, wheels, pipes, valves are hidden behind the streamline cowling of 1930's industrial design. This magnificent engine is probably cruising at 60+ mph. Nearly too fast for the shutter.


The Proletariat Artist League combines imaginative people from all avenues of the world of art. Their annual Benefit All Mankind™ concerts are consciousness raisers on the futility of war. Each year a new location is used to help spread the word. Funds raised are used for commercial campaigns to advertise the crimes of despots and corporation abuse of the environment.

This concert was a ripping success. Drunk with Lead was called back for a second encore which cut into Bogus Slogan's set time. But this was not a problem - Bogus Slogan's encore was two songs in one. A musical trick the band has used since their beginnings. The drums held a steady rhythm as bass / keyboards played "Belittle One" and guitar played "ReSpirited." Vocalist, Mason Kimmers, alternated between the two.
