Chuck Ripper (American, B. 1929) "Polar Bear" Signed lower left. Original Gouache 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 United Nations Endangered Species Series F.s. 0,80 Polar Bear stamp issued March 13, 1997. A denizen of the Arctic, the polar bear is often found on icefloes where it blends in with the white background as it hunts for food. This large carnivore covers a wide range in its pursuit of seals and other prey. Following their southward migrations, the polar bear may travel as far south as the Gulf of St. Lawrence in Canada and the mouth of the Amur River in Russia. Agile on ice and a fast swimmer, the polar bear also feeds on fish, seaweed, grass, birds and caribou. An adult male may weigh as much as 1,600 pounds and stand over five feet tall at the shoulder. The polar bear is characterized by white fur, a small head and a long neck. The bottoms of the feet are protected by hair that insulates them from the cold and helps the animal move easily over ice. Though the polar bear is usually shy and cautious, it is extremely dangerous when confronted or attacked. During winter, bear cubs are born in dens of ice or snow. The young weigh about 2 pounds at birth and stay with the mother for 10 months to 2 years. Because of irresponsible hunting practices, the polar bear has become an endangered species. Sought for its trophy value, this arctic mammal is also hunted by Eskimos for its hide, tendons, fat and flesh. Since 1973, an international agreement has allowed hunting of polar bears only by local populations using traditional weapons. Image Size: 14.5 x 12.5 in. Overall Size: 17.75 x 15.75 in. Unframed.

Chuck Ripper (American, B. 1929) "Grey Wolf Howling" Signed lower left. Original Gouache/Watercolor painting on Masonite. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This artwork was originally published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover for the United Nations S7 Grey Wolf stamp issued March 3, 1993. At one time the lonely, spine-chilling howls of wolves echoed through all the world's forests north of the equator. Today wolves roam a tiny portion of their former range. Grey Wolves -- often called timber wolves -- once wandered throughout the woods, prairies and grasslands of North America. Hunted to near extinction, these magnificent beasts are today relegated to Alaska, Canada and Minnesota, although a few isolated packs survive in Michigan and Wisconsin. The Endangered Species Act protects Grey Wolves in the lower 48 states, but they are still hunted from airplanes in Alaska. Grey Wolves will eat nearly anything -- birds, fish, reptiles, even fruit. However, their survival depends on large animals such as deer, caribou, elk and moose. A pack of wolves may chase a caribou herd for miles, waiting for a sick or aged animal to fall behind, whereupon they quickly and efficiently dispatch it. Every wolf pack includes two dominant wolves known as the alpha male and female. The dominant male leads the pack, while the female takes charge of other females and young males. The leaders choose when to hunt and are usually first to eat after a kill. Most often they are the only members of the pack to mate and bear young. However, the entire pack takes part in raising the pups, bringing them food and protecting them when the parents are hunting. That wolves continue to survive, despite the relentless persecution inflicted upon them, is testimony to their extraordinary fortitude. Image Size: 14.5 x 12.75 in. Overall Size: 17.75 x 14.75 in. Unframed. (B14185)

Don Balke (North Carolina, B. 1933) "Wild Turkey" Signed lower left. Original Watercolor 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. 37c Wild Turkey stamp from the Northeast Deciduous Forest set issued March 3, 2005. The Wild Turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) is native to North America and found in every state except Alaska. Abundant in the deciduous forests of the northeast even before the arrival of the early settlers, its range began to shrink in the 1800s as more and more timbered land was cultivated for farming. With no regulated hunting season to prevent it from being killed year-round, the Wild Turkey disappeared in the northeast for 100 years. However, today large populations of the Wild Turkey are again found in its ancient habitats. The Wild Turkey is distinguished from its domestic cousin by a longer neck and legs, a more slender body, smaller head and darker plumage. Jakes, or yearling gobblers, weigh around 12 pounds, reaching an average of 18 to 21 pounds as adults. In spite of their size, they can run at least 12 miles per hour and fly at speeds of up to 55 miles per hour. Known as opportunistic omnivores, wild turkeys eat various plant and animal matter wherever and whenever they can, but about 90 percent of their diet comes from plants and cultivated crops, including the green foliage of grasses, vines, acorns, buds, seeds, ryegrass, chufa and clovers. Capable of scratching through four to six inches of snow during the winter, they can fast for over two weeks in areas of deep snow and survive in spite of losing up to 50 percent of their body weight. This painting shows a Wild Turkey strolling in the forest. Image Size: 7 x 6 in. Overall Size: 14 x 13 in. Unframed. (B17377)

Hodges Soileau (American, B. 1943) "Little Raven" Signed lower left. Original Mixed Media painting on Foam Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting originally appeared on the Fleetwood Little Raven Commemorative Cover postmarked February 18, 1985. Little Raven was born on the Platte River in Nebraska. After his father died, Little Raven inherited the leadership of the Arapaho bands who occupied eastern Colorado. Little Raven's leadership covered the most critical period for the Arapahos, the survival of the tribe being sometimes in doubt when they were challenged by pressures from their allies as well as from white settlers who wanted their territory. At first, Little Raven chose a peaceful compromise, signing the Treaty of Fort Wise on February 18, 1861. In this treaty Little Raven relinquished claims to a vast territory. He agreed to settle on a reservation along the upper Arkansas River and to live by farming instead of hunting. When government officials failed to keep the the treaty, the Arapahos were forced to leave the reservation to hunt buffalo in order to keep from starving. Little Raven's roving warriors became involved in conflicts that came to a climax with the Sand Creek Massacre of 1864, when Little Raven offered his people as prisoners of war. During the following two years he kept the Southern Arapahos together by taking them south of the Arkansas River where they were out of the mainstream of white settlement. When the government summoned the Southern Plains leaders to a council at Medicine Lodge, Kansas, Little Raven was one of the principal advocates for peace. Little Raven signed the Medicine Lodge Treaty October 28, 1867. He died on his reservation in Indian Territory during the winter of 1889. Image Size: 14 x 12.5 in. Overall Size: 19.5 x 17.5 in.

Tom McNeely (Canadian, B. 1935) "North American Indians" Signed lower right. Original Mixed Media painting on Paper. 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 Canadian 34c North American Indian stamp issued August 29, 1986. During the great Ice Age, when Asia and North America were joined by a land bridge, men and animals moved freely between the continents. These ancient people were Indians from Asia, and were cut off from returning there as the huge sheets of ice gradually melted away, submerging the natural bridge. The Indian population then moved into the northern forest regions of Canada and became known as the people of the Snowshoe. This population could have possibly been as large as 50,000 people although the northern people did not think of themselves as part of this enormous group. They lived primarily in little bands of a few families, except for the rare occasions when a few hundred or perhaps a thousand gathered at one time for a dance or feast. Almost all of the Indians of Northern Canada spoke the same dialect, and practiced many of the same customs. Since they were new to the land, the Indians adopted ways of life that insured their survival. Some roamed the grasslands hunting the ample game, while others settled into small agricultural communities. For thousands of years their customs have served them well, and still today some of these ancient ways of life remain in Northern Canada. The Indians from Asia were the first real explorers of what is today called Canada, for they ventured across the Bering Strait 40,000 years ago to begin a new life in North America. Image Size: 21 x 17 in. Overall Size: 28.75 x 22 in. Unframed. (B10278)

Fabulous figural landscape scene of peasants resting on their way into town, signed lower left. Oil on canvas, evidence of old relines. Philips Wouwerman was undoubtedly the most accomplished and successful 17th-century Dutch painter of horses, which were included in his many small cabinet pictures depicting battle scenes, hunting scenes, army camps, smithies and stables. That he was a more versatile painter, however, is shown by his sensitively executed silvery-grey landscapes, his genre scenes and his few, original religious and mythological pictures. He was also exceptionally productive: although he lived to be only 48 years old, more than 1000 paintings bear his name, but some of these should be attributed to his brothers Pieter and Johannes. Only a small number of drawings by Philips are known.In spite of Wouwerman's extensive oeuvre, it is difficult to establish a chronology, since only a comparatively small number of his paintings are dated. The style of his signature enables pictures to be dated only within wide limits: a monogram composed of p, h and w was used only before 1646, after which he used a monogram composed of phils and w.Size: 7 1/2 x 9 1/2 in.Please note that all sales are final. No refunds will be given under any circumstances.

(A.) This is a side-by-side double barrel shotgun by W. Richards. The shotgun was made in Belgium in the late 1800's or early 1900's, and the barrels were made from Belgium laminated steel. The shotgun has double triggers, a beautiful walnut stock, and a hard rubber buttplate with the handsome logo of a deer. The name "W. Richards Belgium" appears on both lockplates, and "Belgium Laminated Steel" appears in a groove atop the two barrels. The shotgun is in very good condition - a nice patina on the wood, no rust that we can see, and very little wear compared to similar shotguns by Richards. Please do not confuse this with shotguns by Wesley Richards. They are very different gunmakers, and do not use modern ammunition in this gun.The shotgun is 47 1/4 inches long overall and the barrels are 30 inches long.(B.) This is a single-shot percussion cap front- loading rifle, probably made during the mid 1800's, and possibly used for birding or fowling. It has an extended arm with a small eye-hole in the back and a low front sight, a decorated patchbox that features a hunting dog and birds in the sky and laying on the ground, mother-of-pearl inlay, and four U.S. coins that help identify the age of the rifle. There is no ramrod and no maker's mark that we could identify. (The brass grip under the barrel may have a maker's mark, but it is too hard to read.)The coin on the cheek side is a three-cent U.S. coin made between 1851 and 1864 and the coin on the other side is a U.S. half-dime that would have been struck between 1837 and 1873. The two U.S. coins on the underside of the stock are a three-cent coin made between 1837 and 1873 and a Seated Liberty dime struck in 1857.The rifle weighs 13.8 lbs. It is 44 3/4 inches long, the stock is 12 1/2 inches long, and the octagonal barrel is 28 1/4 inches long. There is light wear on the stock, light wear on the brass grip below the barrel, and light pitting on the barrel itself.
