It's typical of a lot of U.S. vans from the late seventies, when vans with 
airbrushed murals and shag rug interiors were the hot rods of the day. I shot a 
few of them for mags like "Custom Vans" back in the day. Most made little sense 
from an artistic or conceptual point of view. They were the product of skilled 
but undereducated craftsmen. The van owners held van events and formed clubs. 
Then, poof! They were gone.
