Painting Original Cartoon Duerrstein Beetle Bailey
Beetle Bailey revolves around the inept characters stationed at Camp Swampy, (inspired by Camp Crowder, where Walker had once been stationed while in the Army). Private Bailey is a lazy sort who usually naps and avoids work, and thus is often the subject of verbal and physical chastising from his supervisor, Sergeant Snorkel. The characters never seem to see combat themselves, with the exception of mock battles and combat drills. Here Beetle is hanging out in front of a camp fire, roasting marshmallows, apparently not doing his job. * Title: "Off Duty Artist: Dick Duerrstein Medium: Oil paint on stretched canvas Signed by the artist, lower right, and on the verso Artist name stamped on verso, and on frame Dimensions: 24" x 24" Condition: Mint Certificate of Authenticity: Issued by Midwest Estate Buyers Beetle Bailey does everything a soldier shouldn't do.
