Hey everybody
I have been interested in blotter art for a while now. I don't actually own any yet, but have spent quite a lot of hours browsing the handful of websites selling them. I am dead set on purchasing a signed sheet as soon as I have some extra cash to blow, but these things are definitely not cheap
As beautiful as a lot of the vanity art is, I was wondering if there exists a listing of blotter art throughout the years that has been known to have been dipped. I am mostly interested in this for historical purposes.

Some of the blotter art (eg. the Hofmann's, Cheshire cats, Beavis & Butthead, Mad Hatter, etc.) is very well-known, but I'm very interested to find some of the more obscure designs. It would be really cool to find a list of authentic blotters along with the year of origin, and perhaps some geographic data, but such an exhaustive database does not seem to exist. A lot of the blotter art information on the internet seems very haphazard at best. I guess I'm just geeking out on this kind of thing and hungry to find more/better info

The most useful resources I've found so far are:

http://lsdmuseum.blogspo.../lsd-blotter-museum.html (more recent examples)

Even the Erowid blotter art gallery is very shallow. It's basically a very small collection of blotter art along with the disclaimer that some are likely vanity art that has not been dipped.

Are there any other good resources for more on the history of blotter art? It can be websites, books, blogs, forums, anything goes :-)

blotterart.net is a good one.

Never seen any pictures of one of my favorite hits of the 80s, tri-color (or maybe it was quad-color) clown face four-way tabs. They were just multicolored (on each face) lines forming the outline of a clown face in '89 or '90. Golden musical notes on a lavender paper was another from the era that looked and felt really good as well, not to mention the lucky charms ... those really were magically delicious.
