1955 Comiskey Park Painting from the Nellie Fox Collection
Fabulous oil on canvas once hung in the home of legendry White Sox Hall of Famer Jacob Nelson Fox. Sumptuous painting in its original rustic frame was purchased by Nellie at the time of its creation and was one of his favorite possessions. Superb image of the Park literally comes alive with the signs of the times in this brilliantly detailed work. Feel the added features of a period bus and taxi roaring past you, the corner luncheonette with black man leaning on the front window decorated with “Red Hots” for 25 cents, and the overall stirring detail of Comiskey that brings you back to a kinder, gentler time. Artist signed by “Harry Kakurai 9-2-55 Chicago, Ill.” Painting itself is 23x17” and overall 25x30” with the original frame. EX-MT. One of the most interesting baseball works you can own.
