Title: A collection of 21 pen and ink, pastel or other media, original drawings on card or paper, including complete cartoon panels for "The Ink Squirts: That Puffed Up Battalion of Miniature Seabees.", c. 1942-1945, each signed by the artist, Size info: various sizes about 20 by 24 in. and slightly smaller, See website for additional data.
Comments: Jack Kellog was a noted "nose artist" for the Seebees during WWII. Nose artists painted the good luck charms on the nose of planes, usually an attractive pin up image. Representative images shown. The unphotographed images are more lettered announcments. Also a collection of 12 snapshots, one showing the artist at work, two showing a pinup image, with the balance probably showing the artist and other seabees in the S. Pacific.
All works guaranteed authentic since 1996 (see "Terms and Conditions"). Additional details, larger photos may be found at our Creighton Davis Gallery website. Creighton-Davis does not accept post sale offers on unsold lots.
