PHILLIP RUSSELL GOODWIN (American, 1882-1935) HUNTERS IN A CABIN USED FOR PETERS 1921 CALENDAR. This wonderful signed oil on canvas by Philip R. Goodwin was originally commissioned in 1920 by Peters Cartridge Co of Cincinnati, OH, one of the largest ammo manufacturers of the period. It is the subject of a famous 1921 Peters Cartridge Co. Calendar. The image is of four men in their period hunting gear, two with double guns, eagerly preparing for a cold weather hunt inside a cozy wooden shack. Image includes a wooden crate of PETERS shotshells, clearly marked, and shows several PETERS 2-piece shotshell boxes. Goodwin’s signature appears in the lower left corner of the image. The Peters Co. was sold to Remington Arms in 1934 as was the original painting. Sometime prior to 1970, it is not known exactly when, Remington sold the painting privately. Once again in 1983, the image would become calendar art as the original was loaned back to Remington Arms’ Richard Baldwin for the production of a retro-look calendar having many of the same attributes as the 1921 Peters version. This painting is illustrated in Larry Len Peterson’s book, “Phillip R. Goodwin: America’s Sporting & Wildlife Artist” on p.239. Philip R. Goodwin (1882-1935)is known for his illustrations of hunting, fishing, and cowboy scenes, especially scenes featuring firearms. By the age of eleven, he had already sold his first illustrations to Collier’s magazine. He was educated at the Rhode Island School of Design in Providence and the Art Students’ League in New York. He also studied with Howard Pyle in Pennsylvania. His works exhibit much of Pyle’s earnestness and discipline. Goodwin produced many notable pictures, the subject matter always being very convincing and dramatic in color. In his early twenties, he established a studio in New York and met Charles Russell, whose paintings provided a great influence on Goodwin’s work. This is seen not only in Goodwin’s use of bright, vivid colors, but also in the romanticized subject matter. Goodwin’s pictures were published in The Saturday Evening Post, Harper’s Monthly and Weekly, Outing, Scribner’s, and Everybody’s magazines, in addition to calendar subjects for Brown & Bigelow, advertising for Winchester including their famous Horse/Rider logo, Marlin, and Remington/Peters Company. He also illustrated African Game Trails for Theodore Roosevelt and Jack London’s Call of the Wild. This is a unique and rare opportunity to own a sporting classic that has never been offered for sale to the public. NOTE: Accompanying this painting is a copy of the Peter’s Cartridge Co. calendar of 1921 in very good condition. SIZE: 40″ x 30″. CONDITION: Several old patches to reverse with corresponding inpainting, craquelure, very good. 4-42712 (50,000-75,000)
