Detectives, the game’s afoot.
Exhibit A: The Athena Poster
This is the poster I created and had 1500 copies printed up in early 1980. The text in the lower left of the photo is the dedication I wrote for John Lennon and had printed onto the remaining copies of my poster.
Because of the dedication to Lennon on my poster a store that was already selling my original poster declined to allow me to replace those posters with the updated version. They didn't want to appear to be trying to profiting from Lennon's death.
As a result I reached out to Yoko Ono in the summer of 1981 to ask her if it was alright to sell my poster with the dedication printed on it. While I was at it I figured why not ask Ono to have Paul McCartney, Pink Floyd, and The Who sing songs about my poster. And if they did to have those songs become part of a similar to the Beatles 'Paul is Dead' story from 1969.
It is now up to the public to take on the role of a detective and figure out if Ono granted my wishes.
Some of these products are directly related to me and my real-life 'you solve it' musical mystery that I started over 45 years ago. They are also a way to raise awareness of humanities ability to end all wars if we all unite together to live in peace. One of the ways I hope to accomplish that goal is by donating part of my profits towards helping out after natural disasters around the world. Right now, I am selling a line of shirts specifically to raise money for earthquake aid in Venezuela. With 50% of the profits from this line going directly towards aid for Venezuela. Thank you for your support.
