Stanley Paine (British, B. 1934) "Model T Ford" Signed lower right. Original Oil painting on Illustration Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting is the original painting which was published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover for the Great Britain 19 1/2p Model T & Escort Ford stamp issued October 13, 1982. The Ford Model T, known affectionately as the "Tin Lizzie," was a simple, sturdy and utilitarian car. Like many of the people who owned it, it was also practical and hardworking. During the eighteen years, from 1909 through 1926, that the Model T was being produced, its share of the automobile industry's total output averaged an amazing 42.9 per cent. In six of those years, production of this classic car topped fifty per cent of total cars produced. The Model T was the car that introduced millions of Americans to the auto age, which in large part explains the folklore and nostalgia that surrounds this famous automobile. Many Americans can still remember their proud first day behind the wheel of their Model T. Countless photographs of parents and children posed around the Model T tell of its importance to the American family. Indeed, every owner had a favorite story to relate about the Model T and at least two home remedies telling how to start the car on a winter's morning. Some drivers put their cars up on blocks the moment the snow fell. The less thrifty might invest five dollars in a Simon Primer, an electrically heated manifold. The Model T was always painted black. It always had a four cylinder, water-cooled engine and a two-speed gearbox with reverse. In 1914, Ford opened a factory in Manchester to produce the Model T. Although the car that had won America's heart was popular in Britain, it was never the success there that it had been in its homeland. Image Size: 6 x 7 in. Overall Size: 11.75 x 13 in. Unframed.
