Bernard SandersBernard Sanders, George Washington Bridge Under Construction (from New York)1927
1927
About the Item
Clearly a view from New York City across the Hudson River to the New Jersey Palisades, this small format packs a wallop! Construction of the bridge was begun in 1927 and this scene is fairly early in the project but still might be 1928?
It's a wonderful bridge, beautiful in the day or lit up at night, but absolutely spectacular on the Fourth of July when cars on the top level pass underneath an an enormous American flag. (Especially great coming from the New Jersey side.) An experience not to be missed. In any case for wonderful views opt for the upper level leaving the lower 'Martha' for for another time.
The print is signed in pencil. There are near platemark breaks in the paper indicating it is among the first impressions made. Scarce.

- Kent Hagerman, (US Air Force Fairchild C-119, the 'Flying Boxcar')By Kent HagermanLocated in New York, NYWhile this is probably a military airport, Kent Hagerman still shows it at its futuristic best. Hagerman was an amazing draftsman who managed to get fantastic detail into his work. This is really a portrait of a plane -- the Fairchild C-119. The words 'United States Air Force' on the side of the plane date it to 1947 or later, after the Air Force split from the Army. The design featured the 'twin boom' clearly showing in this etching. Thanks to this feature it was called the Flying Boxcar. About 1100 were built and used until 1955. It was also used by the Chinese Air...Category
