They have been sitting in print drawers since then. Paper and Ink look like it was printed this morning, but it wasn't, it was printed in 1994.

It is printed on thin paper. There is some reflection in the photo lower left edge next to the rear tire that is not on the poster. Been storing since then, excellent original non circulated condition, but thin paper, should be framed or shrink-wrapped as soon as you get it. GEORGE BARTELL FAMOUS SHELBY ARTIST THE ARTIST OF THE POSTER. George Bartell was a West Coast illustrator best remembered for his automotive art.

Writing in the March 1969 issue of. Magazine, Frederic Whitaker described Bartell as having been adopted by those in the sports car and racing industry as.

Their own special illustrator laureate. Bartell did have a life-long passion for cars.

But his parents and the U. Army threw a roadblock in his path. You're needed in Korea.

He studied Advertising Art and Illustration at Art Center School and Chouinard Art School in L. From 1959 to 1963 he worked on staff at a couple of large west coast art studios. In'63 he went out on his own.

Although he will always be identified with automotive illustration, Bartell handled a wide variety of subject matter and accounts, including men's fashion, portraiture, and corporate advertising. For instance, at the time of the late-'60s article on him Bartell was painting an album cover every two weeks. Bartell liked to work in acrylic, but he was more than happy to use whatever was handy. He described his system of working as open-minded.

He rarely planned out a composition - often he just started with abstract shapes and looked for interesting arrangements to build realistic elements into. When a did job required planning, it would be more in the form of preliminary research.

As far as the actual method of execution, Bartell said. The job dictates the method of portraying the thought. If the subject suggests delicacy, I start with a delicate medium, or if forceful, I may begin painting an abstraction with black paint.
