I like the A&F pic (it's sold, BTW):

After instructing all stores to remove the T-shirts, a spokesman for Abercrombie & Fitch said that the company felt that the shirts would be especially loved by the Asian American community and would be seen as cheeky, irreverent and funny. He said that he was surprised by the hostile reception the merchandise received.

Re: Artist Roger Shimomura

damali ayo has artwork and a spoken piece about the golliwog:

see it at:
http://www.rent-a-negro.com/damali%2.../playback1.htm

hear it at:
http://www.wnyc.org/studio360/show122003.html

In particular, it really struck me when ayo talks about her recognition that the golliwog represents how other people see her.
