Price: $2,250.00
Description: Fashionable woman with road map standing next to car 
Comment:  Good solid story-telling here but beyond that and what I like especially is what we could call ‘the optimism of fashion.’ That concept is something that, sadly, most of us don’t encounter on a daily basis. I have a copy of the magazine page to accompany the purchase. 
Price: $2,250  (includes domestic shipping)

Information

Artist Ben Stahl (1910-1987)
Caption “Go West”
Condition There’s some crackling of the surface and areas of browned varnish, some of which have started flaking off. I suspected that this has been trimmed somewhat based on how the verso looks. That said though once I removed the art from the frame, you can see that there’s a consistent border all the away around, meaning that only blank board was trimmed away. Framed, likely the original one.
Medium Casein on board
