A nostalgic book with 65 caricatures of movie, TV, music and sports celebrities along with their biographies and the fascinating backstory. In 1971, in a corner of the Steering Wheel restaurant in Detroit, Michigan, WJR radio's J.P. McCarthy was inviting Detroit to join him for 'lunch' with his celebrity guests on a radio interview show called, Focus. Harlan Rector, an ad agency art director, was there as well sketching the celebrities with his Sharpie. Harlan's collection of signed caricatures numbers over 100. This book includes: Gordie Howe, Jessie Owens, Clint Eastwood, Carol Channing, James Earl Jones, Maria Von Trapp, Sidney Poitier and 58 more.
