<p>[QUOTE="Bakersgma, post: 9124, member: 59"]I would think that the original was created in anticipation of the Bi-Centennial as a "collectible" item to sell in gift shops at or near historical sites. I'd call him an illustrator more than artist. Kind of odd that one is in the collection of the Conn. State Library, though. Perhaps it was commissioned by the state as part of an historical exhibit (again celebrating the anniversary?)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
