This one ended early on eBay before I could get a bid in. I am starting to remember why I don't use ebay.

Killer Pioneer painting, I swear I have a tunic that is pretty much a dead ringer for the one in the pic... Matt

Nice pick up BaselA

did it come framed?

[BaselA]

Thanks guys! It is quite large and did come with a frame which adds to the bulkiness. Artist's name is signed "P. Kapell"

A lot of paintings.And you can search by subject .

This one also sold recently. Was on the fence since it isn't a painting but I loved the fact that it is all three major branches of service.

It is also quite a nice subject matter.

do you think that this could of been used as a propaganda piece as you see many postcards with the 3 services smiling & laughing together.

Food for thought

But a very nice piece Adam, where was it for sale?

[Adam.B]

I am maybe wrong but after a more detailed look do you think that the three men could be related as some facial features are similar

[Adam S.]

My new feature wall.

Was/is for sale again on ebay - seems not to be a one of a kind.

Yes I believe it was reslisted. When I was speaking to the seller after it initially sold behind the scenes he said he hadn't received payment yet. So it likely fell through. Based on what he said the original deal was for I'm sure he's glad he let the auction run through! Wow.
