What customers say

Vanguard Gallery

Best selection of pin-up art work anywhere. Daniel's editions allowed me the pleasure of purchasing replica Elvgren painting. Daniel, who owns the Elvgren trademarks, even arranged to have my paintings signed by Ms. Myrna Hansen who was one of Elvgren's primary models. It was a pleasure working with Mr. Vancas, I will be back to purchase again and again!

Sincerely.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for re-introducing me to the wonderful lost art of pin-up illustration. What a joy it was to come in and see your beautiful paintings. I remember seeing them as a kid, and being absolutely fascinated by their whimsical beauty.

My friend and I just happened upon your gallery this past Saturday afternoon (just after you returned from your Sushi break). You were so kind as to invite us in and tell the history of Elvgren, pin-up art, and your reproductions. My intent was to return on Sunday before we left Carmel but you weren’t open when I came by. It’s funny, from Saturday evening on, I kept thinking of your work, wondering where I might have a spot for one in my home.

Basically this message is to let you know how much I enjoyed your gallery and to thank you for bringing this art-form back from the past. I travel to Carmel several times a year from the Bay Area, on my next visit I’ll come in and visit your gallery again.

Thank you for the experience.

Fondly,

Robert V. Samppala
