His works are on display in the National Museum of Wildlife Art in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. This lifetime lithograph depicts the Lower Falls and the Grand Canyon it carves out at Yellowstone National Park. An osprey can be seen flying over the falls in the sky. Osprey were often depicted in Tolpo’s work as he was an avid fisherman. The painting was done from “Artist Point” an overlook point on the edge of a cliff which was named by Frank Jay Haynes in 1883 and was believed to be the place at which painter Thomas Moran Sketched his 1872 depiction of the falls. Each print measures 24”x18.25”. The prints are loose in new-old-stock well preserved condition. They were removed from the original wrappings for the first time since Tolpo’s ordered them back in the 1950’s for the first time to be brought to you on this rare occasion. These prints have regularly sold for as much as $300 a piece, which would value this lot at $7,500. These are truly a wonderful piece of Yellowstone history and would be a fantastic gallery, antique store, tourist store, or collector addition. The piece is marked in the artwork, "Carl Tolpo (copyright) ’51 7-9 1949 Yellowstone Grand Canyon Artist Point Afternoon”.
