      • Miles of Hell To Tokyo Poster by Amos Sewell Original Vintage WWll
        Oct. 22, 2024

        Miles of Hell To Tokyo Poster by Amos Sewell Original Vintage WWll

        Est: $500 - $900

        The harsh reality of battle is not often seen in recruiting posters for WWII. This Amos Sewell poster for 1945 depicts an injured solider, head bowed, with artillery shells framing his tired body. The slogan of "Miles of Hell to Tokyo" seems appropriate here, and it highlights the fatigue and languishing experienced at the waning years of the long war. Amos Sewell (1901-1983) began his working life as a banker who took illustration classes at night. He went on to become one of the Saturday Evening Post's most popular illustrators, alongside Norman Rockwell. Sewell created many posters for the War Effort, and this is considered one of his strongest images from that era. 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.

        Original Vintage WWII Poster Buy War Bonds for A Secure Future by Amos Sewell

        Est: $300 - $600

        A farmer invests in his future by buying war bonds in this dynamic and effective WWII poster that was created by the U.S. Treasury. With bonds in hand, he also carries the hopes of his future: his children graduating, a new tractor, a modern car, and a succesfull farm. In America during WWII, every resource was poured into the war effort. With over 12 million Americans - 11% of the total population - serving in the armed forces, everything from food to labor was tight on the Home Front. War Bonds were another popular way for the Home Front to contribute to the War Over There. A staggering 80 million Americans purchased war bonds during WWII.

        Jan. 28, 2021

        AMOS SEWELL (1901-1983) The Sheriff's cast off. [PIRATES / SHIPWRECKS]

        Est: $2,000 - $3,000

        AMOS SEWELL (1901-1983) The Sheriff's cast off. Illustration for an unidentified story. Tempera and gouache on board. 530x790 mm; 21x31 inches, on 27 1/2x38-inch board. Signed "Amos Sewell" in lower right image. Based on the scene depicted and the name "Ellenita" on the lifeboat's hull, it is most certainly for the true but often hyperbolically retold story about the notorious Captain William Henry "Bully" Hayes and the Pacific ship he fraudulently seized in 1859. As the tale goes, the wily Hayes smuggled goods onto the Ellenita, a Tahiti-bound vessel at a port of call in Maui. Aware of the suspicions of the local Sheriff Treadway, Hayes invited him aboard the ship to satisfy himself that no contraband existed. He then proceeded to ply him with liquor, weighed anchor, and sailed out far enough before forcing the drunken Treadway into the lifeboat to row himself back to shore. The sheriff was the lucky one in the end as the Ellenita sank off the shores of the Navigator Islands, though the unstoppable Hayes survived to terrorize the seas again.

As with many examples of classic Golden Age Illustration, the backstory behind The Surprise Party is as interesting as the work itself: The present owner's father met Amos Sewell when he was just ten years old. At the time, the young boy went door to door in New York City, in an attempt to raise funds for his class' surprise party, being thrown for their very pregnant teacher. This was the second party that the class attempted to organize, as on their first try, the teacher had called out sick. The young boy explained the situation to his neighbor, Sewell. The artist loved the story so much, he used it as a basis for this illustration. Subsequently Sewell gifted the work to the owner's father. The present work was published in The Saturday Evening Post posthumously in 1990. A copy of the magazine accompanies this lot. HID01801242017
