Artist | Pruett Carter (1891-1955) |
Caption | “He wasn’t wearing the red and green jacket when they picked him up… but he had one of the incriminating bills” |
Condition | In original frames… could use a cleaning as the varnish has discolored, likely from nicotine. |
Medium | Oil on canvas |
Publication Information | Story illustration: I believe, possibly, for a story entitled “Hush Money” by Howard Brubaker which appeared in American magazine in September, 1937. That’s my best guess at this moment. I do have copies of the magazine pages, just not the magazine itself which is why I’m not sure the publication information is correct. |
Signature | Left panel is signed and dated (’36) lower right |
Size | 34 x 16” each of the two panels |
