As some of you already know, my son Armando Jr. (also an AW artist) is a very qualified technician in the fields of image and sound.

Everything one can do to spread the message to end Polio around the world, is great. Didn't know Polio was still a threat. I remember being vaccinated in school when I was 8 I think and I have one of those skin-bubbles on the top of my right shoulder to remind me lol! Great message Armando, and you must be very proud your son contributed to it. Like father like son eh? Hugs.

Artist Reply: Not sure about polio but I remember those skin-bubbles due to smallpox vaccination. My mother had those skin-bubbles. I also was vaccinated (smallpox) when I was a kid in our postwar period. Difficult times, I also remember the doctor used a fountain pen :-) to cut my skin twice, but no traces on my shoulder.
