Artwork

George Finley is a military artist who was the commander of the 74th U.S. Army Field Artillery Detachment, supporting Missile Wing 1 of the German Air Force. In 1988, the Blackjack Pershing Chapter of the United States Field Artillery Association commissioned a painting to commemorate the decommissioning of the Pershing system. 501 signed prints of The Final Countdown were created. The print is now available for sale again through his website.
Tsereteli created a sculpture using sections of scrapped US Pershing and Soviet SS-20 nuclear missiles. The sculpture, entitled Good Defeats Evil is a 39 foot high, 40 ton monumental bronze statue of St George fighting the dragon of nuclear war. It was donated to the UN by the Soviet Union in 1990 and placed on the grounds of the UN headquarters in New York City. A series of works based on the sculpture that also incorporated scrap from the missiles were released in a limited series of 160 each.

Memorabilia

World Memorial Fund for Disaster Relief

Leonard Cheshire created the World Memorial Fund for Disaster Relief in 1990. The charity obtained Pershing and SS-20 scrap material and created memorabilia for fund raising.

Parker created the World Memorial Pens, a series of pens and mechanical pencils with a Memorial Fund badge on the crown or clip, with half the proceeds going to the fund.
On 4 November 1991 the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library opened in Simi Valley, California. The then five living presidents, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, George H. W. Bush, Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan were present at the opening. Parker presented each with a black ballpoint Duofold Centennial with the Presidential Seal on the crown formed from scrap material and the barrel engraved with signatures of the presidents. The pen was also offered in a walnut box with the names of all five presidents and the Presidential Seal.
