THE CLUES: A pastoral scene. The style looks a bit like Iverd. But what was it used for ? Must have been for something like shampoo or clothing or down-home cookin' right? Look at the image below. BUICK 1928: It was used for a car ad? Yup. The ad isn't signed, because the original painting isn't signed. I don't even know if there was more than one illustrator involved (maybe someone else did the car?) or if the painting at top was completed after the ad was done or if the needed image was just extracted mechanically. |

UNION CARBIDE: Dozens of these ads appeared in slicks, especially in the 1950s. The style always looks the same, but I can't place who it might be. |
