    The Greyhound Bus Company was founded in 1914 and currently serves over 3,000 bus routes across the United States. As part of a campaign to promote use of its buses the company created a series of posters featuring highlights to be found in major cities.

Rod Ruth ( 1912 - 1987) was born in Michigan and trained at the Art Institute of Chicago. He was very active as an illustrator including many comics, wildlife art, pulp books and magazines, as well as posters. This is an Original Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction. This poster is conservation mounted, linen backed, and in excellent condition. We guarantee the authenticity of all of our posters.

    Est: $3,000 - $5,000

    ROD RUTH (American, 1912-1987) Fantastic Adventures, pulp cover, February 1944 Oil on board 15.75 x 14.25 in. Not signed Rod Ruth was one of the Ziff-Davis stable of staff artists. There are notable differences between this original painting and the printed cover -- the science fiction elements have been added on the published version. Ziff-Davis often added such elements, changing one aspect or another of a painting in production in the printing stage, and most likely they added the wings to the horse, changed the hat to helmet with horns, etc., in the production stage. From the Estate of John McLaughlin.
