Harry Schaare (New York, Arizona, 1922 - 2008) "Wiley Post and Harold Gatty" Signed lower right. Original Oil painting on Masonite. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. Flying celebrated its golden age between the two World Wars. Hordes of enthusiastic amateurs entered government sponsored competitions, creating excitement for their barnstorming antics. During this period, Wiley Post, himself a young barnstormer, became determined to fly around the world. On June 23, 1931, Post and his navigator, Harold Gatty, left New York's Roosevelt Field in the Winnie Mae. This Lockheed Vega, powered by a 550 horsepower, supercharged Wasp engine, soared into the sky. The flight went smoothly through England, Germany and along the Trans-Siberian route to the USSR. Here, in the muddy airfield of Blagovyeschensk, the Winnie Mae bogged down. After wasting fourteen hours grappling with the plane, Post and Gatty were finally rescued by a detachment of American soldiers with a tractor. Dirty, but not damaged, the Winnie Mae once again soared through the sky. In Khabarovsk, USSR, the Winnie Mae was grounded for several hours while mechanics inspected the engine. Luckily, the Winnie Mae was in perfect running order, and the around-the-world flight continued. After eight days, fifteen hours and fifty-one minutes, Post landed his plane back at Roosevelt Field, establishing a new long-distance flying record that stimulated aeronautics throughout the world.

Jim Butcher (American, B. 1944) "Spacious Skies/Flag & Eagle over Farm" Signed lower right. Original Oil/Pastel on Cold Press Illustration Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting is the original which was published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover for the U.S. 34c Flag over Farm stamp issued February 7, 2001. Most farmers in early America were largely self-sufficient, producing only enough for the needs of themselves and their immediate families. At the beginning of the 19th century, significant changes in farming began to occur. Settlers began to homestead the Great Plains, using horse and mule labor with iron and steel plows, reapers, planters and threshers. In 1862 Congress passed the Homestead Act, which granted 160 acres to settlers who worked the land for 5 years. Within 3 years, over 15,000 homestead claims had been established. Over the next half century, immigrants from Scandinavia, southeastern Europe and Mexico transformed the Great Plains from barren prairies into fertile fields of American bounty. During the 1920s and 1930s the gasoline-powered tractor came into general use. In 1940, the average American farmer supplied food to some 10 people. During the 1950s America experienced an agricultural revolution with the number of tractors on farms exceeding the number of horses and mules. In 1850, some 90 labor hours were required to produce 100 bushels of corn. A century later, only 15 hours were required for the same result. By 1960, one farmer was supplying food to over 25 people. By 1970, this figure had tripled as a result of using better fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides and strains of crops. Today, agriculture in the United States continues to be the msot efficient and productive in the world. Image Size: 16.75 x 14.75 in. Overall Size: 20.25 x 18.25 in. Unframed. (B07137)
