Conan's Pizza in Austin, TX: conanspizza.com/historyThey don't say anything about Conan the Cimmerian on their "History" page due to legal reasons, but that is totally the inspiration. They've been in business 41yrs.

They've been in business 41yrs. Hmm, a lot of Frazettas with a Kelly in the middle. And those two bottom pictures. The closer one just looks like a generic barbarian, but what the heck is is the image of the green-clad woman on the back left? Anybody recognize it?

The art looks like the ... wait, I have found it. 1996 Marvel Masterpieces Card # 38 by Julie Bell.

I would never have thought to see an Xman image in there among all the primal sword & sorcery stuff. I guess Bell's style is close enough to the Vallejo/Kelly/Frazetta school that the owners of the pizza shop thought it fit in with the other pictures. To me it's kind of a (nice looking) lame duck. Great catch though.

I mentioned it elsewhere, but the god-awful Asylum offering Merlin and the War of the Dragons contains two references to "the Hyborian Ages".

They've been in business 41yrs. Sad news: www.bizjournals.com/austin/news/2018/06/20/longtime-campus-area-pizza-joint-conans-to-shutter.html"Another one bites the dust in Austin - About four weeks from now, the central location of Conan's Pizza is shutting down, a victim of the soaring greedy rental costs in this town. This one has been at this location since the beginning. There is a north and south branch, both are terrible. If you are passing through town, take your last chance to grab a pizza at that great place. This is just one more local legend disappearing forever. Before long, old Austin will be gone."
-- Dennis McHaney, award-winning REH scholar/fan and longtime Austin resident

Conan's Pizza? How do they make that exactly? Ground grey man-eating Vilayet ape bones instead of flour for the base? A topping of dragon's blood sauce, spattered brains, and fresh green shoots of Yogtha, the plant whose roots are set in hell?
