- With Butch Cassidy peddling popcorn and salad dressing, it
- was only a matter of time before the Sundance Kid got into the
- act. This week Robert Redford, 52, is launching a line of
- products and condiments in a new mail-order catalog with a
- Southwestern flavor. Titled Sundance, the 36-page catalog offers
- such Native American and regional specialties as dried
- wildflower bouquets ($25), chili wreaths ($36) and handmade
- cowboy boots ($299).
-
- The proceeds will go to Redford's Utah-based, nonprofit
- Sundance Institute for the Arts and an environmental group he
- started, the Institute for Resource Management. Explains Gary
- Beer, 38, president of Sundance Group: "Government funding for
- the arts is down, and we'd like to be self-sufficient." While
- consumers may be hungry for Redford's hot sauce ($25), the Great
- Waldo Pepper will have to sell a lot of chili to match beans
- with L.L. Bean.
