Stanley Mouse
First Annual Cosmic Car Show (Handbill Flyer)

1967

About the Item

He grew up in Detroit where he was expelled from high school because he decided to paint some unsolicited images on the wall of a freshly white-painted restaurant and hangout across the street from his school. His downfall came because he signed his work. From the start, Mouse understood art should be subversive. Instead of going back to high school, he enrolled in the Detroit School for the Society of Arts and Crafts, but soon tired of the life drawing and abstract painting classes and concentrated on his own Monster art. He pin-striped and painted flames on hot rods and air-brushed cartoon characters — crazed monsters with gear shifts in their hands atop fantasy vehicles — on sweat shirts he sold every weekend at county fairs, drag races and car shows. He developed a healthy mail order business. In 1963, he started Mouse Studios with his parents to handle sales of his designs (Mouse’s father was a sign painter and animator who had worked on “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs”).
