[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 382472, member: 84"]I found this at a local thridt store today & liked it from a distance, before I looked it over & saw the artist's name + USS MIDWAY CUA '41 on the back! I first thought it was oil on board, but it is a black canvas (I thought velvet, but I don't think so, it doesn't have that feel - unless age changed it) I looked up the name but didn't see anything under Julius Phillips, artist - has anyone heard of him? What does CUA stand for? Any thoughts on the art itself and/or if it has any value; both as art alone and as "trench art" type art (Is this trench art?)? Thanks all; I appreciate your thoughts.
