I wanted to end this thread with this image, but it turned out I didn't have access to it where I was. So, I am adding it now.
This is an original watercolor by LeRoy Neiman. It shows Howard from behind wearing his famous "32" and reads, "Parque Universitario de Caracos Venezuela 17 Margo 71" underneath. Signed and inscribed "Elston Howard" by Neiman in pencil. Neiman personally gave this piece to Howard who enjoyed it for many years. When Howard was done enjoying it, he gave it to a close personal friend. I got it when the family of that friend submitted it to auction.
Thanks for listening.
