    This painting was my grandfathers. He died in 1992 at the age of 72. I never met him since he passed away a year before I was born. I've asked my family about this painting, but no one seems to know where he got it, when he got it, or who it created it. I was hoping to find out any information on it I could. I was able to find some similar paintings by a man named Lee Reynolds Burr and his brother. It's a beautiful painting.

      Pretty generic paintings for the 50's - 60's. Seemed like everyone had these or the velvet paintings... okay, not everyone but yes, they were in a lot of homes. I haven't seen one in a long time tho. These are like the paintings of the Captain with the pipe. Done by various artists with a low sale price so that just about anyone can afford to have an "original work of art".
