In fantastic shape, as well!

I will be able to see it better when it comes in. It is a high school poster so it may be a student but who knows? I'll try to figure it out.

I've been looking to add one of these to my collection for a while. I finally found one within my budget. It served to take a bit of the sting out of my derailed National plans.

Looks like the artist is RJ Dwyer. Couldn't find anything in a cursory search online. I found a James Dwyer who was an illustrator, but he was born in 1898. Being that this piece dates to 1901, that would make this James Dwyer either the wrong person or quite the child prodigy.
