Ed Vebell (American, 1921 - 2018) "Washington At Valley Forge" Signed lower right. Original Acrylic painting on Masonite. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This artwork was originally published on the Fleetwood Commemorative Cover for Epic Events in American History series issued in 1985. As a chapter in the military history of the American Revolution, Valley Forge was negligible. As a chapter in American story and legend, tradition and symbol, it contributed more than any other in the history of the war. The Washington whose memory still quickens the pulses of Americans is not so much the soldier who commanded at Yorktown or even the President who presided over the birth of the republic, but the General who somehow held together a neglected army, starving and desperate on the wintry hills of Valley Forge all through the bitter winter and spring of 1777-78. General Howe had captured Philadelphia -- only twenty miles east of Valley Forge. When Washington and his troops arrived at Valley Forge on December 19, 1777, what they had to face was, luckily, not a powerful and well-equipped army, but lack of food, clothing, shoes, blankets, housing, and medical supplies to cope with the breakdown of the commissary and the threat of pneumonia, typhus and smallpox. When, in the late spring of '78, Howe finally evacuated Philadelphia for New York, Washington was able to pursue him and at Monmouth Court House fight the British to a standstill. With that reversal of roles, with the American victory at Saratoga and with news of the French Alliance, the tide of the Revolutionary War turned. Image Size: 20 x 21 in. Overall Size: 24 x 26.75 in.

Charles J Lundgren (New York, Connecticut, 1911 - 1988) "U.S.S. Minnesota" Signed lower right. Original Oil painting on Artist Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting was published on the Fleetwood Commemorative Cover for the U.S.S. Minnesota. The wooden steam frigate U.S.S. Minnesota served with distinction as the flagship of the Union's Atlantic Blockading Squadron during the Civil War. Originally commissioned on 21 May 1857 with Captain S.F. Dupont in command, the U.S.S. Minnesota began her career as a member of the East India Squadron. She carried U.S. Minister to China William B. Reed to the Treaty Conference in China and returned him home, arriving in Boston Navy Yard 2 June 1859. She was then decommissioned and remained in Boston until the outbreak of the Civil War. The U.S.S. Minnesota was recommissioned 2 May 1861 with Captain G.J. Van Brunt in command. As flagship of the Atlantic Blockading Squadron, U.S.S. Minnesota had achieved lasting fame on 14 May 1861 off Hampton Roads, Virginia. That day, she captured three Confederate Schooners laden with supplies. The Mary Willis, Delaware Farmer and Emily Ann, were all taken. During the next five weeks, the U.S.S. Minnesota went on to capture the barks Winfred and Sally Ann as well as the Mary Warick and the schooner Sally Mears. In August of 1861, she participated in the Army-Navy expedition against the Confederate forts at Hatteras Inlet, North Carolina. Barely six months later, the U.S.S. Minnesota was grounded as she engaged a number of Confederate warships off Newport News. Image Size: 25 x 27 in. Overall Size: 25 x 27 in. Unframed. (B10793)
Ed Vebell (American, 1921 - 2018) "Pershing Arrives in Paris" Signed lower right. Original Acrylic painting on Illustration Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This artwork was originally published on the Fleetwood Commemorative Cover for Epic Events in American History series issued in 1985. American leaders knew that it would take months to raise the kind of army the Allies would need to win World War I. But, after their April 6, 1917 declaration of war, the United States sent General John J. Pershing to France with one division. Pershing arrived in Paris, June 14, 1917, as Commander of all the American forces to be sent to the Western Front. Soon after he arrived, the stern commander placed a wreath on the Marquis de Lafayette's tomb. In a speech on General Pershing's behalf, Col. Charles E. Stanton announced, "Lafayette, we are here." This action thrilled Allied troops and symbolized that the Americans had come to repay all the valiant Frenchmen who had helped them during the Revolutionary War. For the Germans, Pershing's arrival in Paris was demoralizing. They soon discovered that under his harsh and almost despotic command, the growing number of American troops were being trained in marksmanship and sharpshooting. The German armies realized that the Americans had become a hard driving force in a short time. On May 31, 1918, German fears that incoming American troops would overwhelm them were realized when Pershing's men began fighting in France. By early August, Pershing's army had stopped the advancing Germans, and this victory ahad a decisive effect on the Allied triumph in World War I. Pershing's arrival in Paris prior to these battles is commemorated on this artwork. Image Size: 20 x 21 in. Overall Size: 26.5 x 27.5 in. Unframed. (B06411)
Shannon Stirnweis (B. 1931) "Army and Camels" Signed lower left. Original Oil and Acrylic painting on Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting originally appeared in the Fleetwood Trails West Collection of Fine Art Prints as "The Camel Corps" published in 1983. With the discovery of gold in California, thousands of easterners set off to make the trip westward. But the transcontinental journey was long, arduous and dangerous -- and the need for an overland route was crucial. So the government sent soldiers and other military personnel to establish roads and protective military posts. However, the rugged, bone-dry deserts were devastating obstacles to the horses and mules the soldiers needed for overland travel. The animals' insatiable need for water, and their inability to carry heavy loads made the military look to another beast of burden that could hold up under the harsh conditions. One insightful man, Jefferson Davis, saw many of the difficulties presented by western deserts could be overcome with the use of camels ... animals already proven in deserts of the Far East. He convinced the United Staes govenment to procure a number of the beasts to see if they could provide the rugged and dependable transportation the military needed. By late 1856, thirty-three fine camesl were shipped from the Far East to Indianola, Texas, where the army reluctantly received the animals. At first, the soldiers despised the camels because of their extremely foul smell and unpredicatable temper. However, after the animals proved themselves as remarkably superior transportation over the vast, waterless deserts, the soldiers were proud to be a part of America's only Camel Corps.

John Swatsley (American, B. 1937) "Hudson's General" Signed lower right. Original Oil painting on Illustration Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting was originally published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover for the U.S. 29c Hudson's General stamp issued July 28, 1994. One of America's most fascinating railroad stories is woven around a Civil War incident known as the Andrews Raid. In April 1862, members of the Union army, led by General O.M. Mitchel, were closing in on Huntsville, Alabama, with intention of next moving on to Chattanooga, Tennessee. To ensure Mitchel's success, James J. Andrews, a spy and contraband runner, devised a scheme involving the capture of a train and the sabotage of a railway system used by the Confederacy. His plan called for 24 men clothed in civilian dress to penetrate rebel lines, seize the train and put rail operations between Chattanooga and Atlanta out of commission. When the gang of saboteurs met at Georgia's Big Shanty station they found that the depot had been converted into a Confederate camp. Fortunately the intended victim, a locomotive nicknamed the General was left vulnerable to capture. As one of the participants in the caper later recalled, "... the conductor, engineer, and many of the passengers hurried to breakfast, leaving the train unguarded. Now was the moment of action!" The Northern raiders boarded the train and were soon headed toward Chattanooga. Eventually a locomotive manned by the Confederates caught up with the General and a hair-raising chase ensued. Unable to stop for fuel because the Southerners were so close behind, a desperate Andrews commanded his crew to abandon the General. Just before the last man leaped from the train, the engine was reversed and driven back toward its pursuers. Image Size: 14 x 12 in. Overall Size: 20 x 17.5 in. Unframed. (B14715)
Chris Calle (American, B. 1961) "Robert E. Lee" Signed lower right. Original Mixed Media painting on Illustration Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting was originally published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover of the U.S. 32c Robert E. Lee stamp issued June 29, 1995. Handsome and intelligent, a moralist who never drank, smoke or cursed, Robert E. Lee believed duty to be the noblest word in the English language. During the Mexican War, General Winfield Scott called the brave young Virginian the "greatest military genius in America." Unlike many Southerners, Lee was opposed to slavery and secession, and had freed the few slaves he inherited long before the Civil War began. But he admired George Washington and believed his state was protecting the liberty, freedom and legal principles that Washington had fought for. On May 31, 1862, General Joseph E. Johnston, commander of Confederate forces in Virginia, was wounded at the Battle of Fair Oaks. The following day, Lee took command, calling his troops the Army of Northern Virginia. Although seriously outnumbered, Lee won impressive victories at the second Battle of Bull Run, Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville. Taking the offensive at Gettysburg, Lee's forces met defeat in a three-day battle that proved to be the turning point of the war. In the spring of 1864, facing Ulysses S. Grant for the first time, Lee's outmanned and outgunned troops were cut to pieces in the Wilderness campaign. Lee surrendered to Grant on April 9, 1865. He chose to spend his last years as president of Washington College in Lexington, Virginia. Following his death on October 12, 1870, the school was renamed Washington and Lee University.

David K. Stone (American, 1922 - 2001) "Liberation of Paris" Signed lower right. Original Oil painting on Masonite. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting originally appeared on the Republic of the Marshall Islands 50c Liberation of Paris 1944 stamp issued August 25, 1994. The Allied invasion of Normandy on D-Day was merely a prelude to the events that would follow. In the weeks to come, villages and cities across France were liberated from their German conquerors. But Allied planners at first intended to bypass Paris, instead proposing to continue pursuit of the German Army across France. Supreme Commander Dwight Eisenhower changed his mind, however, when informed that Hitler had ordered his forces in Paris to destroy the city. Fortunately, the German commander in Paris, Lieutenant General Dietrich von Choltitz, had no desire to ruin what he considered one of the world's most beautiful cities. Disobeying his orders, he arranged first for a truce with the French Resistance and later surrendered to Allied forces. Image Size: 15.5 x 25.5 in. Overall Size: 23.75 x 27 in. Unframed. (B14780)
