Barry Wilkinson (British, B. 1923) "Great Britain -- 1911 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost" Signed lower right. Original Watercolor painting on Illustration Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting was published on the Fleetwood Europa Cover for the Great Britain two 20-1/2P Europa stamps issued May 15, 1984. Known as the "Best Car in the World," the Rolls-Royce was also to have the longest run of any automobile in history. The first Silver Ghosts were shown in 1907 and they remained in production with only minor alterations until 1925. In all, eight thousand were built. When the car was first introduced, employee Claude Johnson developed a scheme to get it some much needed publicity. First, he took the thirteenth chassis built and had it painted silver. Then the Roi des Belges touring body was similarly colored and all the metalwork was silver-plated. Thus, the Silver Ghost came into being. Silver because of its finish and Ghost because of its silent running. Strictly speaking, there was only this one actual Silver Ghost and it is owned by the company. Immediately after the creation of this marvelous silver motorcar, Claude Johnson set out to prove the car's reliability and performance. The Rolls-Royce firm discontinued all other models, leaving the acclaimed Silver Ghost in splendid isolation. Although not a design leader, the Silver Ghost was at all times the best built and most carefully tested car in the world. The model in the painting is the 1911 40/50 Silver Ghost. It was in this year that the Silver Lady was first used on the radiator cap. Designed by Charles Sykes RA., a well-known sculptor, the lady represents the Silver Ghost's effortless "flight." The handsome Silver Ghost Rolls-Royce is shown in front of the Royal Exchange in London. Image Size: 10.75 x 9 in. Overall Size: 13 x 11.5 in. Unframed. (B09230)
Robert Seabeck (Wyoming, B. 1945) "1957 Bel Air" Signed lower left. Original Mixed Media painting on Paper. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting originally appeared on the Republic of the Marshall Islands 60c 1957 Bel Air stamp issued September 1, 1998. The 1950s were a time of rock 'n' roll music, drive-in movies, and fries and a malt with the gang at the local burger palace. The automobile that most symbolizes this carefree era for many people is the 1957 Bel Air Sports Coupe. With its prominent fins, deeply-hooded headlights, twin windsplits on the hood and wide-mouthed grille, the '57 Bel Air Sports Coupe was an automobile fancier's dream come true. A brilliant gold "V" on the front of this sleek vehicle proclaimed to the world that its owner had a powerful V-8 engine under the hood. The Super Turbo-Fire 283-cubic-inch V-8 produced an incredible one horsepower per cubic inch. A popular Chevy ad bragged, "Curves don't come too sharp or hills too steep for this nimble new Chevy. The road isn't made that can make it breathe hard." Image Size: 7.5 x 13.75 in. Overall Size: 15 x 22.25 in. Unframed. (B15992)
Robert Seabeck (Wyoming, B. 1945) "1955 Thunderbird" Signed lower left. Original Mixed Media painting on Paper. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting originally appeared on the Republic of the Marshall Islands 60c 1955 Thunderbird stamp issued June 4, 1996. The 1955 Thunderbird was introduced February 20, 1954 at the Detroit Auto Show and was an overnight success. Though Ford considered the Thunderbird a "personal" car, American buyers hailed this popular automobile as a sports car. Around 300 names were considered for the Thunderbird, including Sportsman and Coronado. This instantly popular two-seater featured a variety of options that catered to the luxury-minded buyer. The Thunderbird's mesh grill and hooded headlamps were similar to other Fords, as were its taillights and the distinct shape of its upper rear fenders. A removable fibre-glass hardtop, weighing about 85 pounds, was standard on the Thunderbird. The steering column was adjustable and a tachometer was standard equipment. Both manual and automatic transmissions used a floor shift. Ford built 16,155 Thunderbirds in 1955, with a base selling price of $2,944. Image Size: 6.75 x 13.75 in. Overall Size: 15 x 22.5 in. Unframed. (B15395)
Dan Fern (British, B. 1945) "Board Games" Original Mixed Media painting on Illustration Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting originally appeared on the Fleetwood First Day Cover of the Great Britain 19p Toys and Games stamp issued May 16, 1989. Zipping round and round with dazzling speed, new toy trains and racing cars are always a source of excitement -- and by time honored tradition sometimes more so to the father than his son. Still, when dad steps in and takes over, he can claim a certain amount of historical precedent. Originally, a "toy" was a pretty trifle made for adults, not children. Only in the 19th century did the word "toy" come to specifically mean a child's plaything -- and that was a long time after the first toy train had brought enjoyment. In fact, the earliest toy trains actually preceded the invention of the "Iron Horse" itself, with a line of wheeled playthings pulled along by hand. After the steam engine was invented, mechanical power gradually entered the toy box, too. Water-filled boilers were heated by methylated spirit burners, and the old toy pull trains were soon transformed into shiny lines of railroad cars hauled on miniature rails by chugging toy steam locomotives. Toy electric locomotives ensued in due course. Then, after the automobile was invented, toy "Tin Lizzies" also soon were delighting children of all ages. And it wasn't just the children's cars and racing car sets that became popular -- though America's fascination with the automobile is amply reflected in its toy boxes. Finely crafted precision miniature automobiles, some with intricate moving parts and costing hundreds of dollars, have become favorites with adult collectors. Image Size: 17.5 x 18.25 in. Overall Size: 21 x 22.75 in. Unframed. (B12017)
Dick Simms (American, B. 1932) "Stutz Bearcat 1933" Signed lower left. Original Oil on Acrylic Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting was originally published on the Fleetwood First Day of Issue Maximum Card for the U.S. 11c Stutz Bearcat 1933 stamp issued June 11, 1985. Harry C. Stutz had designed automobiles for fourteen years before starting his own car company in 1910. The first automobile Stutz produced was a racing car that he built in only five weeks and entered in the first Indianapolis 500 auto race in 1911. Although the car did not win the race, it averaged almost seventy miles-per-hour and required no mechanical adjustments during the entire race. In 1914, Stutz introduced the legendary "Bearcat" model which became one of the best known sports cars in America. The Bearcat featured a low chassis, raked steering column, two bucket seats and a three speed gearbox. While Stutz knew the quality of his cars, he also knew the value of publicity. Therefore, when a customer brought back his newly acquired Bearcat, protesting that its performance was below standard, Stutz handed the car over to the famous driver E.G. "Cannonball" Baker, who used the very same car to break the trans-American speed record. This feat helped secure the reputation of the legendary Stutz Bearcat Sportscar. Image Size: 12.25 x 17 in. Overall Size: 15.25 x 19.75 in. Unframed. (B09612)

Original vintage travel poster issued by the American Airlines - Fly American Overseas Airline to the USA. American Overseas Airlines (AOA) was an airline that operated between the United States and Europe between 1945 and 1950, headquartered in Midtown Manhattan, New York City. Photo of the United States Capitol Building (the home of the United States Congress and the seat of the legislative branch of the U.S. federal government located on Capitol Hill at the eastern end of the National Mall in Washington, D.C.) with trees and flowers in the foreground by Ivan Dmitri / Dmitre (1900-1968), born Levon West, an American photographic artist. Born in Centerville, South Dakota, his father was a Congregational minister who immigrated from Armenia. The family changed their name to West when Levon and his brothers did not want to enlist in the service during World War I under their Armenian last name, Assadoorian. The name West was chosen as it was the maiden name of Levon's mother. Levon West adopted the pen name of Ivan Dmitri to use for his color photography. His etchings and watercolors were always done under his original name, Levon West. The first color photographic cover on the Saturday Evening Post magazine (May 29, 1937)was by Dmitri, a photo of an Automobile racing driver seated in his race car. Another SEP cover, May 16, 1944, was a photo of General 'Hap' Arnold, with B-17's flying overhead, with a B-17 crew planning a flight. This cover was so popular that the United States used the photo image to print a very rare World War II (war effort) poster. As Ivan Dmitri, he helped to gain acceptance for photography as an art medium, and established one of the first photography exhibits at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art. Very good condition, minor creasing. Country of issue: USA, designer: Photo by Ivan Dmitri, size (cm): 60x78, year of printing: 1947

Original vintage advertising poster for the Mini Minor MK3 Innocenti - La cosa piu giovane che ci sia su 4 ruote. / The youngest thing there is on 4 wheels. Great design features a young lady holding books and leaning on a green Mini automobile car. The Mark III Mini had a modified bodyshell with enough alterations to see the factory code change from ADO15 to ADO20 (which it shared with the Clubman). The most obvious changes were larger doors with concealed hinges. Customer demand led to the sliding windows being replaced with winding windows, although some Australian-manufactured Mark I Minis had adopted this feature in 1965 (with opening quarter light windows). The suspension reverted from hydrolastic to rubber cones as a cost-saving measure. (The 1275 GT and Clubman retained the hydrolastic system until June 1971, when they, too, switched to the rubber cone suspension of the original Minis. Good condition, tears, staining. Country of issue: Italy, designer: Unknown, size (cm): 33x68, year of printing: 1970s
