One of the few items of the 1989 UM BBall Championship that I've seen. Very nice

This is one of three pieces that I am adding to my collection. Once I have received the other two pieces I will be happy to provide a photograph of the display. The quality of the art piece is exceptional. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase even more pieces!

We were disappointed that the name of the artist is cut off and not showing in full. We feel the name of the artist is an important part of it and would love to have it rectified

We live in the desert so the Palm theme resonates. The color scheme is brilliant and perfect. We would like to see more from this artist. Where do we look?
Artist's Description
This is a painting of a Lockheed Constellation, Model 49. The plane was built in 1946 and was part of the TWA fleet until 1962. This one was named "The Star of the China Sea" as most of the planes in that era were christened with oceanliner-type names. My father was a TWA pilot, and I remember flying in these in the 1950's.

I flew the Connie for TWA. The painting depicts the aircraft as it was prior to 1962 after which radar was mandated and dramatically changed the nose profile. I think the painting wonderfully portrays the hope of America. Following the World War, America was booming and here was this grand product of American ingenuity majestically flitting over the American corn belt, shinny new, as were the hopes of this Country.
