Some time ago I found the famous "Koala Bear Collection" in this place.
Holger added some new ones; for completeness I send all of them.

Rowan Crawford, aka Row, is no longer with us. He migrated from
alt.ascii-art when rec.arts.ascii was created but did not seem to
make an appearance over there in that new group.
This is one of his latest pictures, hopefully not a self-portrait:

As for the Koala Collection...
It seems we now have two collections:

To be certain both artists are credited it seems necessary to
separate them...note that Rowan Crawford's is copyrighted and
presumably should not be posted without his permission...although
that becomes difficult to obtain if he is no longer on the Net.
Tricky isn't it ?
