Thresher, Search for Debris

During a vacation sail aboard the Stephen Tabor out of Camden Harbor
we anchored in Rockland Harbor for the Lobster Festival in June of 1964.

The Naval ship USS 110 Quapaw anchored for shore leave. The ship
was returning from a trip to locate some debris for the downed Submarine Thresher wher 129 officers and men lost their lives.

It is my intent to make a limited edition of this image to be placed for sale at some later date.

Wingmen 31" x 21"

This watercolor depicts the landing of the Columbia and the Wright Flyer in the same image showing the progress of aviation. There were several similarities-both were powered gliders and flew with the aid of wingmen.

As you know the Columbia did not return from its last mission giving this art some historic value. This is a limited edition of 500 of which 10% have been reserved by the artist for remarqueing.

The poster is printed on acid free paper with acid free inks. Included is a certificate of authenticity. Prints are available directly from Bill Evans for $60, remarqueing $160.
