About the Item
Harry Dunn (1929-1998). Island People, ca. 1970. Oil on masonite panel, 18 x 30 inches; 24 x 36 inches framed. Signed lower right. Excellent condition.
Dunn attended the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, Philadelphia College of Art & the Art Students League of New York. He worked in New York & Philadelphia in advertising, television & illustration. Among his notable achievements the NBC peacock, and the covers of The New Yorker, Park East &Fortune magazines.
Harry Dunn was extremely successful in two worlds of art, fine & commercial Dunn was every bit the versatile artist. Although his background includes extensive exposure to the Brandywine School of painting, his own personal style is far from traditional. Yet, it is a style that has wide appeal, and many of his works complement otherwise traditional collections bringing fresh –sometimes whimsical view of traditional subjects.
Design was an important facet of Dunn’s work which no doubt accounts for his extraordinary success in commercial design. Such corporate giants of his day Scott Paper, Yale & Towne, National Distillers, Bates Canon and Villager Clothes enjoyed positive sales impact from his creativity. In fact there was very little in the field of commercial art that Harry Dunn had not undertaken, designing openings for TV’s Hit Parade or Dave Garroway shows and promotional films when he directed the motion picture and slide film division of Mel Richman Inc. Dunn’s works were featured on the covers of House & Garden, Fortune and the New Yorker magazines.
For those who lived in the Delaware Valley in the 1960’s & 1970’s you would remember his murals in local hotels, apartment buildings and banks. He designed business logos and signs that many of us still remember.

Delos Palmer Jr.
Tree in Winter
Signed lower left
Oil on Masonite
10 x 8 inches
Delos Palmer, Jr. was born January 26, 1890 in New York City. His father was Dr. Delos Palmer, a socially prominent Park Avenue dentist. His mother was Jennifer Emma Banta. His parents were both born in NYC, where they married in 1880 and had five children. There had three sons and two daughters. He was the fourth born. They lived in a private townhouse at 48 West 50th Street, with a cook, a waitress, and a nurse to assist in his father's dental practice on the ground floor.
They lived a privileged life and the children all went to the best private schools. He graduated high school in June of 1908.
He studied at The Art Students League from 1911 to 1915 with the renowned American Impressionist, George Bellows. According to the artist, "Bellows was a good influence on me. He taught me how to paint what I see and what I feel!"
In 1916 Palmer moved to the historic Holbein Studios at 139 West 55th Street. He worked there until 1920, when he moved to the more fashionable Greenwich Village, where he became a successful society portraitist.
He was 27 years old during the Great War, so he was not selected for military service.
In 1923 Palmer began to sell interior story illustrations to Metropolitan Magazine, The Saturday Evening Post, and Liberty.
In 1924 he married Helen Smith Romme and moved to Stamford, CT, where they raised a daughter and two step-sons.
The fateful market crash of 1929 ended Palmer's high society portrait business, but he soon found work through his contacts at Liberty magazine's MacFadden Publishing, which also produced several crime and detective magazines such as Master Detective and True Detective.
He then began to paint pulp covers for Dime Mystery, Clues, Frontier Stories, Action Stories, Western Trails, All Star Adventure, Complete Western Book...
