I discovered this painting minutes after I bought this Rod Serling sweater.

The painting was by Kris Automichael dated 1939.

Fan Photo from Mitzi Flanita

This photo arrived in our offices today with the following letter from Calvinistic Cartoon fan, Mitzi Flanita:

Dear Mr. Eddings,
I came across this old photo of Fred Astaire. It was in an old trunk my mother kept in her attic. As you can see, she snapped this picture as Fred was leaving Boston and heading back to Hollywood. My late mother met Mr. Astaire at an art auction where he purchased this painting of Nikola Tesla and you, Mr. Eddings. My mother told me that Fred would just sit and Astaire at that painting for hours. 
I am puzzled as to how you are featured in this oil painting. You are either much older than you appear or you are a time traveler. Either way, I wanted to send this to you Fed-Ex so you could post it on your blog.
Regards,
Mitzi

Well, Mitzi Flanita, Calvinistic Cartoons is sending you a check for seven thousand dollars for your thoughtfulness. I often wondered what had happened to that painting. I wonder who owns it now? 

A Page from Corky's Past

Back in 1881 (the year that could be read upside down) Corky Velveeta spent part of his day modeling for the Calvinistic Women Art Society in Liverpool. If you click on the picture above you can enlarge it enough to use as a great wallpaper...maybe for the den or living room.

Painting of Atlantis Goes on Display

This incredible painting by Wassily Tintoretto is on display at the Guggenheim Art Museum in Abu Dhabi. Located in the Cultural District of Saadiyat Island in the capital of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The admission is free if you say the words, "Cotton Adams was a Calvinist".

Fan Artist Displays Painting

Phlegm Boyant, professional oil painter, saxophonist and part-time judge, displays his newest work in a gallery outside of Boston. I am honored at such an honor, your honor. Thanks for sending me the photo and the news article, two days later, that reported the painting being sold to the highest bidder and then thrown in a dumpster. Sounds awful Finney to me.
