- Lot Description
A war time effort to sell bonds by printer maker George A Picken (1898 - 1971) to aid in the sales of bonds. This serigraph uses an unusually large number of colors - around 15 - and depicts the making of a warship. The print was published by American Living Art. One dealer cites information indicating that the prints published by the firm are based on original print designs rather than reproductions of paintings.
This examples is framed and matted, and signed and dated 1942 in the matrix. None of these prints is known to be pencil signed.
