A titan!
Honestly, I didn't realize he was still alive.  99 is great run for anyone. 
Gorgeous body of work.

I have a lot of nostalgia for his Movie posters too. (Including a fair few classic Bond ones.)

A great body of work indeed.

Picked up THE ART OF ROBERT McGINNIS a few years back. Truly a towering talent.

I have the same Art Of book…his women were comely, his men manly and
he had a great eye for design and capturing a certain light that just rang
true no matter the setting
