received a BFA in drawing from Southern Illinois University at Carbondale in 1993 and an MFA in printmaking from Washington University in 1995. From 2000 to 2010 he was an instructor in printmaking at Washington University.

Tom Huck was born on December 9, 1971 in Farmington, Missouri and grew up in nearby Potosi. He received a BFA in drawing from Southern Illinois University at Carbondale in 1993. He currently lives in St. Louis, Missouri where he runs his own press, Evil Prints.

Tom Huck is a visual artist best known for his large scale woodcuts. His imagery draws heavily upon the influence of Albrecht Durer, Jose Guadalupe Posada, R. Crumb and Honore Daumier. He is a regular contributor to BLAB! and was the illustrator of The Roots’ Phrenology album art in 2003. Huck’s woodcut prints are included in numerous public and

Huck is best known for creating large-scale woodcuts acting as both satirical narratives and social criticism.He says in his artist statement: “My work deals with personal observations about the experiences of living in a small town in southeast Missouri. The often Strange and Humorous occurrences, places, and people in these towns offer a neverending source of inspiration for my prints. I call this work ‘rural satire’”. From 1995 to 2005, Huck created two woodcut folios: 2 Weeks in August: 14 Rural Absurdities and The Bloody Bucket. 2 Weeks in August: 14 Rural Absurdities, a thematically unified suite of 14 large woodcut prints, depicted 14 bizarre folk tales that allegedly occurred in Huck’s hometown of Potosi, Missouri. The suite was produced in three years from 1995 to 1998. His second body of work, The Bloody Bucket, was based on violent legends surrounding a bar of that

name in or around his hometown of Potosi. It comprises 10 large-scale woodcuts, executed between 1999 and 2005. Huck is currently working on a 14-triptych cycle of woodcut prints entitled Booger Stew. The first installment of the series, a triptych entitled “The Transformation of Brandy Baghead Pts. 1, 2, & 3”, was completed in March 2009. An exhibition entitled Tom Huck and the Rebellious Tradition of Printmaking opened on August 28, 2009 at the Saint Louis Art Museum. Prints by Albrecht Dürer, William Hogarth, Jose Guadalupe Posada, and Max Beckmann were featured alongside Huck’s “The Transformation of Brandy Baghead Pts. 1, 2, & 3”. Huck’s woodcut prints are included in numerous public and private collections, including the Whitney Museum of American Art, Spencer Museum of Art, Nelson Atkins Museum of Art, Saint Louis Art Museum, Milwaukee Art Museum, Minneapolis Institute of Art, Fogg Art Museum, Michael C.

Times and four other Voice Media Group publications: the Houston Press, Dallas Observer, Broward-Palm Beach New Times, and Minneapolis City Pages.

On December 19, 2011, Huck’s website www.evilprints.com announced the April 1, 2012, release of The Hillbilly Kama Sutra. This new suite of 15 linoleum cut prints is Huck’s first portfolio of prints since 1998’s 2 Weeks in August: 14 Rural Absurdities.

All five had a cover caricature of Michele Bachmann’s head on a snake, referencing the “Don’t Tread On Me” motif. The story featured 9 politicians in caricature. In early spring of 2014 Huck completed work on his second major woodcut triptych from “Booger Stew” entitled “The Tommy Peeperz”.

On April 12, 2012, a selection of prints from the new series were released in the St. Louis weekly publication The Riverfront Times. On May 4, 2012, Sherry Leedy Contemporary Art in Kansas City, Missouri, hosted the debut exhibition of The Hillbilly Kama Sutra. “The Transformation of Brandy Baghead” 2009. In February 2013, Huck illustrated a cover story entitled “The 10 Weirdest Members of Congress” written by Caleb Hannan. The feature article appeared in The Riverfront

“The Tommy Peeperz” debuted in a show of The Outlaw Printmakers entitled “The Dirty Dozen” at the Rochester Contemporary Art Center on April 3, 2014. In April 2015 Laumeier Sculpture Park in suburban St. Louis permanently installed 3 playground “spring toys” designed by Huck and fabricated based on his series of “Death Bug” prints. It is the first interactive public art project Huck had undertaken. An exhibition entitled “Tom Huck: Hopeless Americana” opened on October 17, 2015 at Gallery 210 at UMSL St. Louis.

Accompanying this 20 year retrospective was a catalogue that included essays by Richard Field, emeritus curator at the Yale University Gallery of Art. The exhibition included most of Huck’s major works in print from 1995 to 2015, as well as sketchbooks and a small selection of studio ephemera. Aside from creating woodcuts, Tom Huck has also designed logos, posters, and apparel for musicians and organizations. Huck has created the artwork on posters, t-shirts, and ephemera for bands such as Motorhead, The Roots, and A Perfect Circle among others. In 2002 he designed the cover of The Roots’ album Phrenology, and in 2009 he designed the poster for the band Motörhead and their show at The Pageant in St. Louis. Other clients of Huck’s have included Pabst Blue Ribbon and Art the Vote, for which he designed a billboard ad during the 2008 presidential election. Huck’s work pushes the boundaries of technique and taste in his chosen medium, the woodcut. Huck draws his influences mainly from Northern Renaissance masters, such as Albrecht Dürer whom he cites as a

“print hero”. Other influences include José Guadalupe Posada, Honoré Daumier, and Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes. Huck’s work is also known for his delicate and intricate method of carving and use of cross-hatching in the print medium. It has been described as having “a real delicacy of touch” and “an extraordinary landscape of marks”. Huck is associated with a movement within contemporary American printmaking known as the “Outlaw Printmakers”, a group that also includes Bill Fick, Richard Mock, Dennis Mcnett, Sue Coe, Sean Starwars, Michael Barnes, and Cannonball Press. “My works deal with personal observations about the experiences of living in a small town in southeast Missouri. The often strange and humorous occurrences, places, and people in these towns offer a never ending source of inspiration for my prints. I call this work “rural satire”.

The owners, L.B. and Dorcas Powers have been known for years as Mr. and Mrs. Eat-Rite. L.B. said, “I’m going to miss it like my right arm.” After working in a diner for 65 years, 80-yearold L.B. Powers is hanging up his apron. His wife has been by his side for most of that time. Dorcas Powers said, “We’ve come to love the people we worked with and the people we met its just it’s kind of like home a part of our being.” At one point, they owned seven Eat-Rite Diners. Their last one is just south of Busch Stadium. They’ve been considering calling it quits, L.B.’s health is not as good as it used to be. They said a broken exhaust fan at the diner was the last straw, plus the problem of finding dependable workers. Dorcas said, “You hire somebody they may be there they may not, they may show up they may not.” L.B. has had to adapt to a changing industry over the decades, including reacting to the major chain restaurants. He said, “At one time we were the hamburger people and here come McDonald’s so we add a little more than hamburgers.” It’s impossible to say how many lives they touched over the years serving a meal with a friendly smile. The powers have also reaped rewards that are priceless. L.B. said, “It’s hard to explain what I’m going to miss it’s been a way of

8

life for us.” Dorcas added, “There’s not a lot of years left we should be doing something else we should be relaxing enjoying our great grandchildren.” They worked up to the end. She’s been doing the books and he’s been down at the diner helping by washing dishes and making pancake batter. The Powers family, owners of Eat-Rite Diner near Busch Stadium, claim slingers began in their diners. They’re just not exactly sure when. “We started serving slingers around 1985,” Tina Powers says. “Customers started ordering it – ‘Hey, put a scoop of chili on that.’” “It was at the Fenton store in the ‘70s,” counters her brother, David Powers. “A truck driver from Texas came in and ordered chili on his eggs, and it evolved from there. Two waitresses started saying ‘sling it’ to the cooks instead of explaining that the whole order included chili, cheese and onions. Slingers started at Eat-Rite. O.T. Hodges tried to copy it, but they were second to Eat-Rite.” Eat-Rite is a fiercely loved family business: Tina and David work at their father’s diner. Lewis Powers opened his first restaurant in St. Louis in 1957 on Manchester Road called Rock Hill Diner. There were once several Eat-Rite diners across the city and

9


county. Now, the single Downtown location is the only sit-down restaurant open 24/7 in the neighborhood. The diner serves the same slinger recipe it always has. “It’s a breakfast,” says patriarch Lewis Powers. “It’s meat, eggs and potatoes covered with chili, American cheese and raw yellow onions. You can have hamburger, bacon, sausage or ham, but 99 percent are made with sausage. Most of the waitresses don’t even ask customers what meat. They just ask ‘em how they want their eggs. “It’s two patties of whole-hog sausage that we use. Most of the time, people order over-easy eggs. The potatoes are hash browns – we make our own. We boil potatoes, peel ‘em, cool ‘em off and then grate ‘em. We do all that by hand.” “Old school,” Tina adds. “A lady was asking me that yesterday. She said, ‘I thought you got that out of a bag.’ I said, ‘No, this is the real thing.’” The slinger “is our best seller,” Lewis says, “especially at night. That’s about the only breakfast we serve at night.” David adds, “Them slingers almost got a cult following. It’s a tradition, a rite of passage. Every college kid has to come in and have a slinger the first time they go drinking.” The Eat-Rite Diner - a tiny institution at the corner of Chouteau Avenue and South Seventh Street - closed in October 2017.

10

It was at least temporary but possibly for good. Owner L.B. Powers reminded us: “I’m 80 yeas old. I’m not in good health.” The immeidate reason for closing was mechanical issues with the exhaust fan. Back in 2014, the Eat-Rite was felled temporarily - by an out-of-control SUV that forced it to close for repairs but it got back up and running. Powers was the force behind the Eat-Rite and its greasy spoon menu of burgers since 1970 - but the building is believed to date back to the 1930s. The 24-hour diner was known to attract some diners looking for a bite after even the late-night bars closed at 3 a.m. In the right rear corner of the Eat-Rite Diner, up by the security camera, there’s a cluster of holes in the porcelain tile. A robber blasted those into the wall with a shotgun in the 1980s. He came in one night trying to hold up the place, but the cooks were too busy to notice — at first. So he fired off a round. That got everyone’s attention. What happened next — how much he stole, whether he truly pistol-whipped someone, whether he got caught — depends on which staffer you ask. Eat-Rite lore is like that. Details get added or elided over time. But it’s a decent yarn, and a decent yarn can pull you through the night shift. Last week, Riverfront Times sat through three consecutive night shifts at the Eat-

Rite Diner at Chouteau Avenue and Seventh Street. It’s fair to wonder why. The menu hasn’t changed much in 45 years. The building is just a 516-squarefoot dive a few blocks south of Busch Stadium. Only thirteen customers can eat at the counter at a time. It grosses maybe a few hundred bucks on an average night. Yet Eat-Rite is unique in our city’s nocturnal ecosystem. It’s the sole kitchen within a three-mile radius of the Arch that stays open all night and lets you dine in — making it a sort of bottleneck, a place through which the peckish must pass to get their after-hours pancakes or omelets. It attracts St. Louisans of all moods: the drunks and demons, clowns and curmudgeons, philosophers and philanthropists. At Eat-Rite, you chow down next to folks who didn’t attend your high school and don’t care about your career. Black, white, 99 percent or 1 percent — sometimes the only trait you share is a craving for the slinger, that hot wreckage of breakfast foods that the owners, the Powers family, claim they developed three decades ago. In that sense, Eat-Rite is nothing like Nighthawks, Hopper’s romantic rendering of a late-night diner. It’s not a spare, glassed-in cavern in which you brood at arms length from your neighbor. It’s a bunker, your neighbor’s arm is draped around your neck, and he’s eating your fries. The daytime crowds are tamer. Cops and postal workers order carryout. Local celebrities Chuck Berry, Jack Buck, Jim White, Francis G. Slay, Claire McCaskill, Mike Shannon and David Freese have all hunkered down at the Formica counter.

It attracts St. Louisans of all moods: the drunks and demons, clowns and curmudgeons, philosophers and philanthropists. At Eat-Rite, you chow down next to folks who didn’t attend your high school and don’t care about your career. Black, white, 99 percent or 1 percent — sometimes the only trait you share is a craving for the slinger, that hot wreckage of breakfast foods that the owners, the Powers family, claim they developed three decades ago. In that sense, Eat-Rite is nothing like Nighthawks, Hopper’s romantic rendering of a late-night diner. It’s not a spare, glassed-in cavern in which you brood at arms length from your neighbor. It’s a bunker, your neighbor’s arm is draped around your neck, and he’s eating your fries. The daytime crowds are tamer. Cops and postal workers order carryout. Local celebrities Chuck Berry, Jack Buck, Jim White, Francis G. Slay, Claire McCaskill, Mike Shannon and David Freese have all hunkered down at the Formica counter.

St. Louis’ Favorite Microbrewery The Saint Louis Brewery, Inc. was incorporated in 1989. It was founded by Dan Kopman and Tom Schlafly, a lawyer and nephew of the late political activist Phyllis Schlafly, although she was not involved with the brewery in any way. Their goal was to create quality local microbrew beer. In 2010, production of some canned beer was shifted to Wisconsin. Late in 2011 Saint Louis Brewery, Inc. owners Tom Schlafly and Dan Kopman signed a purchase agreement to transfer a 60 percent ownership interest to Sage Capital, a St. Louis, Missouri equity company led by Wes Jones and John Lemkemeier.[3] Saint Louis Brewery is Missouri’s largest locally owned independent brewery.

The brewery was built in the former Swift Printing Company building in downtown St. Louis. The Swift Company moved out in 1969, and the building remained vacant until renovated for the St. Louis Brewery in 1991. According to IMDb, scenes from the 1981 motion picture Escape From New York, starring Kurt Russell, were filmed in this building before its renovation. The brewery produced its first beers in 1991, with the official public opening on December 26, 1991.[4] The first batches of pale ale and wheat beer were available only in draft form for purchase at a pub on the premises. In 1993, Schlafly expanded to bottled beer, and began selling to local grocery chains, restaurants, and bars. The bottled beer was contract-brewed by the August Schell Brewing Company in New Ulm, Minnesota, as the St. Louis Brewery had limited brewing capacity and no bottling operation of its own. In 2003, the brewery opened “The Schlafly Bottleworks” in a former Shop ‘n Save supermarket building in the St. Louis suburb of Maplewood. This facility includes a brewery and bottling plant in addition to a restaurant, beer garden and produce garden. With the addition of this facility, the St. Louis Brewery now brews and bottles all the beer sold under the Schlafly brand. This facility was cited by the Saint Louis Business Journal in its naming the Saint Louis Brewery its 2008 Sustainable Operations Winner. The Schlafly brand has since expanded to seven styles available year-round, as well as over 25 seasonal

brews. In 2014, the brewery filed for an exclusive trademark on the use of the name ‘Schlafly’ to sell microbrewery beer; however, this was opposed by conservative activist Phyllis Schlafly, on the grounds that “alcohol has a connotation that is the opposite of conservative values.” [6] On August 14th, 2016, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office sided with the brewery over Phyllis Schlafly, who had planned to appeal the ruling. When we opened in 1991, we had no business plan beyond wanting to make great beer and food in a fun atmosphere and enjoy it with our community. To this day, our goals remain unchanged. The Saint Louis Brewery™, maker of Schlafly Beer is proud to be Missouri’s largest locally owned independent brewery. Each year, we brew over fifty unique styles of fresh beer, roughly half of which we bottle and half of which are exclusively available on draft at our two breweryrestaurants. We have a unique beer style for every beer lover, and hope you’ll enjoy our selections at your favorite local stores, restaurants, and bars. The Schlafly Tap Room in Downtown St. Louis first opened its doors in 1991 and holds the distinction of being the first new brewpub to open in Missouri since Prohibition. Housed in a beautifully restored wood and brick building on the National Historic Register, The Schlafly Tap Room enjoys a reputation as a casual, earthy place to drink, dine, listen to great live music, or host a special

event. Schlafly Bottleworks in Maplewood has been described as the “local home of beer” and one of the best places in St. Louis to arrive hungry and thirsty. It’s fun, friendly, warm, and inviting and has become a gathering place for the local community and their families. As St. Louis’ first new production brewery to open since the end of Prohibition, the free weekend tours are not to be missed: every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday: Noon - 5pm on the hour (every 30 mins on Longtime conservative activist Phyllis Schlafly has lost her fight to block the maker of Schlafly beer from trademarking the brand’s name. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, in a decision last week, sided with the St. Louis Brewery, which applied for the Schlafly trademark in 2012 as its sales began to take off outside of Missouri. In her opposition to the trademark application, filed four years ago, Phyllis Schlafly argued that the brewery — which was co-founded in 1991 by Tom Schlafly — shouldn’t be able to trademark a name that she made famous after decades in the public eye. Phyllis Schlafly, who turns 92 on Monday, is known for founding the conservative Eagle Forum and helping lead the successful opposition to the Equal Rights Amendment

in the 1970s. Tom Schlafly, a St. Louis attorney and the brewery’s largest shareholder, is Phyllis Schlafly’s nephew by marriage — she married his uncle, the late John Fred Schlafly. “In connection with its usage as a surname, it has the connotation of conservative values, which to millions of Americans (such as Baptists and Mormons) means abstinence from alcohol,” Phyllis Schlafly’s filing with the trademark office stated, adding that “an average consumer in Saint Louis and elsewhere would think ‘Schlafly’ is a surname associated with me.” In addition to Phyllis Schlafly’s opposition, her son Dr. Bruce Schlafly also filed an opposition to the brewery’s trademark registration, alleging that trademarking the Schlafly name could negatively impact the orthopedic surgeon’s reputation by associating his name with alcohol. But in its decision, dated Aug. 2, a trademark office board dismissed Phyllis Schlafly’s and Dr. Bruce Schlafly’s opposition filings, which were consolidated. The board, noting that the law allows a trademark to be registered if it has acquired distinctiveness, rejected the argument that a trademark shouldn’t be allowed because it’s primarily a surname.
