Created early 1960's, likely 1961-63, perhaps New York City. In the style of the Duvoisins, Anonymous, but clearly a very talented artist with a great personal style. Wonderful mid-20th century original art relating to childhood. Great piece of original modern art with a very strong and attractive mid-20th century aesthetic. One of a kind, looks worthy of being a professional television animation film cel, or hung today in a children's book or art museum setting. A+ image in our opinion. Of special interest for the strong rockets, space travel and exploration board game and theme. Pre-dates landing on the Moon, an early Wehrner von Braun-era space age exploration and rocketry illustration. Excellent technique and aesthetic style, reminiscent of Hanna-Barbera Studio and Flintstones & Jetson cartoons, sure to draw favorable and admiring attention where ever hung. Light old glue reside or tape staining at top edge or across bottom,both easily/ readily matted out if desired by framer. Surface appears as painted, any flaws trivial. Board measures c. 11" x 13 7/8".[V1261].…
