Oh, come on, how about something hard?

Philip K. Dick ("electric sheep" on the shirt, if you don't recognize the face)

John W. Campbell, Jr. (should have had him smoking a cigarette with a holder)

Isaac Asimov

Robert A. Heinlein

E.E. "Doc" Smith

Arthur C. Clarke (pants are too long for his Sri Lankan climate, though)

Ray Bradbury.
