Just found a calendar of 6 "LYNCH GIRLS" from 1980 on ebay. There are 2 paintings I've nver seen before. I think they could have been done in the 1970's unlike his more well-known works which I beleive are pre-1970. If this is so then the artist was still alive in the 70's. Just another possibole peive in the puzzle! Here's the link to this item http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=20149&item=3641188401

Looks like you didn't see my post in the "Marketplace" section: http://www.jhlynch.org/lynch.php?threadID=26
But I also think it's quite a sensation. Unfortunately the seller didn't reply to my questions yet. Anyway - could the person who wins the bid in the end provide me with photos of the girls and any other info that the calendar shows?

I can't believe that there's a lynch calender.........perhaps these paintings never made it to be produced as wall hangings, that's way a lynch calender.who knows!
The ladies look very 70s

Okay - so we need to collect all the available information about this calendar:
Who is the publisher?
Where was it published?
How do the images look?
So here's my plea to the lucky person who will win the auction: please post these infos here and send me good scans or photos of the singe pages: info@jhlynch.org

Dan Timmer, who sells the calendar has sent me more photos - and now I can read most of the girls' names, too:
FAY, WANDA, PEYAL, VALERIE, one is unreadable.

Mario, that's nice of Don to send you the photos, can't wait to see them. Does he know anything about Lynch?

Until now he just sent me the photo without comment, so I have no idea. I will upload the raw pictures in a few minutes. BTW - he has also added some to his eBay page.

Okay, here are the unedited photos he sent me:
Is it PETAL or PEYAL?: http://www.jhlynch.org/img/calendarlynch1.jpg
