Message:: [QUOTE="Snowman Cometh, post: 9790586, member: 83302"]My slim detective skills solved one mystery, WHO the drawing was inscribed to. It also explains (in a logical sense) how it got to where it was. This is almost exact to what's on my drawing, just clearer. This is from the book Lupas did the illustrations for Artists In Music Of Today, which was also given to the family. <img src="https://cdn.hibid.com/img.axd?id=7949838719&wid=&rwl=false&p=&ext=&w=1600&h=1200&t=&lp=&c=true&wt=false&checksum=tVj66C1MTIH1XiaGQ7TNwHU36UzmlHnT" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />To our dear friends the Soulkos - with fondest thoughts from the Lupases. By removing the S and making it a lower case G (g) used as a capital letter, the name is now Goulkos. Remove the plural S and it's Goulko. Alfred married Rolly Goulko in 1936. She's always been known as Rolly Bester. These drawings and book must have come from her family. They knew Lupas, not Alfred Bester. They were passed down to her. They are still fantastic, and they hung in his home with his wife till she passed away. He kept them. I'm actually kind of proud that I could  figure this out on my own. For everyone that helped identify the other two, THANK YOU.[/QUOTE]
