That's going to get mounted above a fireplace, right?

A safe, actually. But it is fireproof.

The Shadow - The Creeping Death - Jan. 15, 1933
21” x 30” (Oil on canvas)

I remember saying to a few people,  if I could have one Shadow Painting (or any pulp painting ever done), “The Creeping Death” would be the one.  

When it came up for auction at Heritage I couldn’t believe it, and I eventually ended up with it.  A heartfelt “thank you” to Ferd Bernjak, Glynn Craine, and Todd Hignite who helped me obtain it!

This is absolutely amazing... I love looking at this and knowing that a fellow boardie owns this!

This is Lee Brown Coye's watercolor painting from 1940 called The Old D.L. & W. Station.  The real train station was built in Syracuse NY in 1877 and was demolished in 1940 when the tracks were elevated in the city.  Coye visited the site a made preliminary sketches before the demolition.  In this piece he contrasts the old with the new: the old train and station with the then modern automobile on the left.  The painting was exhibited at the Whitney Museum in NYC in 1941.  Another of Coye's paintings, Dark House, from the 1939 Whitney exhibit was purchased by The Met, where it still resides.

This is an incredible piece of history form my home town!

Wow, I never saw this post before today. Hearty congratulations on these stunning examples of American Regionalism!

Thanks guys!  I just got it back, reframed with museum glass, and it looks great.

I posted some Weird Tales photos in the WT thread that belonged to a friend of mine. He also had this piece of Paul Lehr Art. The image is covered w/ a plastic sheet so it looks better in person. He's an artist I've grown to like more over the yearss.
