SZoner Meets Sly & Frank




SZoner, Stephen Isa recently attended Seriesse International and was able to speak with Sylvester Stallone. Stephen also was able to take these pictures with him in Las Vegas on 10/20/07 at the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino.

About a week earlier Stephen got a picture with Frank Stallone when he performed in New York City.

Stephen sends out a big thank you to Frank and Sly and we send one to Stephen for sharing the photos! – Craig

Rocky for the Holidays

Hey SZoners!

The holidays are quickly approaching and I wanted to remind everyone that Rocky sculptures are still available through A. Thomas Schomberg studios. These statues were created by A. Thomas Schomberg [who created the original Rocky sculpture seen in the Rocky movies] in collaboration with Sylvester Stallone and MGM studios. The sculptures make great gifts and there’s a sculpture for every price range! I’ve had mine for nearly a year now and I smile with pride every time I pass it [several times a day]!

I’ve stayed in contact with Mr. Schomberg and his wife since my interview with him [part two of the interview is here] for the SZ. I recently checked to make sure that statues are still available and they are! In fact, with the holidays coming up, they are expecting a surge in sales — so I thought it would be a good time to get your order in SZoners!

Remember, if you’ve purchases a statue, I’d love to post a picture of you with it! – Craig
