Dave Butler and George Farrier on Icon Art Radio Wednesday at 8am

This week on ICON Art Radio Bill and Allen interview Dave Butler, organizer of the Dodge Power Wagon Rally, and George Farrier, Wendell Phillip's sidekick on his famous expedition to Arabia in 1950 to find the Temple of the Queen of Sheba. Wendell Phillips is commonly understood to be the inspiration behind the "Indiana Jones" character.


The story of the adventure would make a great Hollywood film – getting the President of Chrysler to give them 17 Dodge Power Wagons, going where no westerners had tread, finding Sheba's Temple and its priceless artifacts, leaving 15 Power Wagons and many artifacts behind as they fled chased by armed tribesmen.

Iowa Contemporary Art (ICON), is presenting an exhibition celebrating the "Legendary Dodge Power Wagon and the Arabian Expedition" through July 21st.

ICON Art Radio airs Wednesdays 8:00 a.m., repeated Sundays at 8:00 a.m.
