ORIGINAL GEE BEE AIRCRAFT "SPEED" DRAWING signed in pencil in lower right corner, right above matting. It is very apparent, yet letters are small and hard to discern. This possibly could be an original advertising or promotional piece.
The drawing is approx. 5+3/4"H by 8+1/4W.
The frame adds another 2" all-around and the matt
another 1+5/8" at widest point.
The BEE GEE aircraft was brought to life by
the Granville brothers in the late 1920's and
was known for their design, racing and speed!
This work is comprised of pencil, watercolor,
and marker or oil.
It is set in original ROYCROFT FRAME ! It is
not signed yet employs the angular front joint
and squarish corner construction on back. This is
guaranteed to be vintage and Roycroft. This
item came out of a farm house in East Aurora,
New York ; home of the Roycroft. There is another
item I have listed for sale that came out of the same estate.
Overall this item is in VERY GOOD condition.
the drawing has some slight yellowing and the
frame has overall nicks and scrapes yet has the
original finish. The frame I believe is approx.
20yrs. older than the drawing. The drawing has
been rematted and the glass replaced do to it's
former condition.
GREAT HISTORY and INTEREST !!!
