These pieces of artwork were purchased from the estate of the late artist, J.K. Butler. They originally appeared in the "Heaving Line" which was published for the Maritime Service Station at Sheepshead Bay in Brooklyn N.Y during WWII. While the original captions are missing (as they were typeset, not done by the artist) they still convey a significant message.
