<B>Woody Guthrie Painting with Inscription.</B></I> One of the most influential and prolific of American folk musicians, Woody Guthrie was also an accomplished painter, as evidenced by this piece titled "Pressed In," depicting a snowbound cabin. A cut-out space in the back area of the frame reveals a poignant inscription by Guthrie to a friend: "Hello Nick: These are two awful cold pictures for such a warm friend -- was Florida very much like this? I never been there. Woody Guthrie 1-4-42 New York City." The artwork is in great condition, with the lower right corner torn loose but still present, and is matted and framed to an overall size of 18.5" x 16.5". A unique item and extremely rare.
