Guest ken bogren Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 "art including paintings, drawings,"Does that include advertising art? There's some great art in auto ads, especially some of the pre-WWII stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Bond Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 This could be a great spot to learn more about some of my "wall-hangers." Here is a print that I picked up recently. Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Wolk Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 That's hilarious. She's thumbing her nose at the officer while covering the license plate. Looks like that car pre-dates license plates, though.Here's our latest acquisition, by Chris Osborne. http://chrisoart.com She's well know for putting famous people in period scenes.

West Peterson Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 This is just the announcement thread. You are free to start your own posts in separate threads.BarryThat car in Terry's print may predate state-issued plates, but it certainly doesn't predate plates that owner's would have been required to make.Your painting turned out nice. This is the first time I've seen it finished. Usually automotive artists ruin paintings by trying to be a portrait artist as well. She did well on both in this one.

Barry Wolk Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Are you suggesting sub-headings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Peterson Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 No. I mean... just as Terry started his own on his postcard collection, everyone is free to start their own thread about whatever they want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest donkeypunchboy Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Hi people. I'm not sure where to look for answers on this. I work at a recylcling company and had some interesting stuff come in in a box from a remodeling job.I started sort the debris like I always do. I found something very interesting. It was something that looked like a technical drawing of Chryslar Pent Star design. I found a bunch more then some concept drawings of cars.I found a binder that has what looks to be the original Dodge Ram emblem artwork.Also some stuff for Jeep logos. I mock up for Crylar LaBaron. But with an Imperial eagle looking design on it. Some metal punch outs of the eagle and the LaBaron Lettering.Then I found some letters relating to the artist and also the Dodge brothers and some interesting stuff about their family geneology and their use of the Dodge family coat of arms and some concerns about the patent rights on the cart of arms and whether they had the rights to use it on automobiles. Pretty interesting stuff.Anyway. I recognized that what I had found is of some historical importance and monetary value. Not sure what to do with it. Most of the stuff had gotten a little wet. I'm drying it out right now.I'm thinking I'm going to put the stuff up for sale. I work at a recycling company for $14.50/hour and this stuff could be worth more than I make in a year.Any advice on how to go about getting this stuff appraised and ultimately sold?Any help would be great.Thanks in advance for any help.

Guest lborrero Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Not sure if you guys are interested but an artist is trying to pull together some iconic car parts for an art show to promote the art car scene in Pennsylvania. she has a nice 911 door in her style and more Porsche parts could come. you can check it out at: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1285103120/iconic-automobile-art-show-by-vivian-calderon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
