Original Vintage Fine Art Oil Paintings

Landscape Oil Paintings - Seascape Oil Paintings - Portraits

To some people music is the cure for all stresses, while for others itâ€™s the sound of the ocean or the wind racing across a landscape. And then to many, itâ€™s all the emotion that went into creating a stirring work of art. We donâ€™t pretend to be art experts; we are certainly not the stereotypical stuffy fine art connoisseur. You know them at the art gallery exhibits or museum curators who strain so hard trying to impress with gratuitous language. Maybe you've encountered their pretentious persona often stereotypical of the fine art socials.

No, weâ€™re just collectors of primitive fine art, primarily from the 18^th, 19^th and early 20^th century. There is just something alluring, even fascinating about a work of art that has far outlived itâ€™s master and will continue on long after weâ€™re all gone. For the collector of vintage, itâ€™s the historic look and feel, a moment in time captured on canvas. When I look at my Battle Ship scene from 1894, I wonder what it was like to be onboard loading up another canon ball. Or, the baby in the 18^th century painting on ivory. What did he grow up to be and how long did he live. I guess thatâ€™s what art does to us who can appreciate fine worksof art, it makes us dream. We all have our own personal story. And, it belongs to no one else but us.

Our collection is primarily made up of stunning seascapes, breath-taking landscapes, stimulating portraits and a few unusual gems. I hope you enjoy our selection.

Below and on the left hand column menu we have three Fine Art categories, Seascapes, Landscapes and Portraits. We hope this makes it easy for you to locate your next premium fine art acquisition. If you have any questions please use the Contact Us link at top of this page.

Three Stooges
Authentic Autographs

The Three Stooges were a hugely popular film comedy team of the mid-1900s, and continue to be today (even more so). The original trio were Moe Howard (born Harry Horwitz, 1897-1975), his brother Curly (born Jerry Horwitz, 1903-1952), and Larry Fine (born Louis Feinberg, 1902-1975). Although Shemp was actually before Curly prior to setting out on his own, quite successfully I might add.

Stooge comedy consisted mainly of slapstick eye-gouging, shin-kicking, head-knocking, and the like. The group made nearly 200 comedy shorts between 1934 and 1958. The first 97 starred the original trio; after Curly suffered a stroke in 1946, he was replaced by his brother Shemp, then by Joe Besser, and finally by 'Curly Joe' De Rita.

As a result of the immense popularity and insatiable demand, Three Stooges Authentic Vintage Memorabilia continues to skyrocket in value.

A Brief History of Movie Stills

Don't forget to sign up for ur FREE Monthly Promotion & Newsletter

Movie stills (photos) have been issued by studios since the earliest days of cinema. They were sent in limited numbers direct from the studio's publicity department to theaters and the media to promote a new release and the film's stars. These printings had very short printing runs, and the stills became in essence "limited edition" prints.

Most movie stills show a movie scene, but also include stunning portrait shots and fascinating candids. Studios recognized the great promotional value of these stills to entice moviegoers into the theater, and often spared no expense in creating beautiful scene stills, portraits and candids taken by some of Hollywood's most accomplished photographers. Many stills are like works of art in themselves and have become iconic images of cinema and 20th Century culture.
Since the late '60s stills have taken their place along movie posters and lobby cards as desirable and highly collectible cinema artifacts. More and more collectors are becoming aware of these stills and how desirable they are to collect and/or display.

The 30 year still expert who owned these stills say they are the first he has seen in over 30 years.
These are even more rare then the movie posters or lobby cards.
