<p>[QUOTE=&quot;verybrad, post: 31920, member: 37&quot;]I have never seen Carlo paintings on wood either. These seem a bit high-brow for Carlo with the Latin names and all but they are definitely Carlo with the label. I have also never seen a Carlo painting with a date on the front.</p><p><br /></p><p>I can&#039;t say I am an expert in Carlo of Hollywood ... <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/cool.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":cool:" unselectable="on" /> I have done some research at one point.&nbsp; For as many of these paintings as there are out there, there really is not a lot of information. There was one guy with a website that had a bit of information and he had hinted that he was writing a book and getting ready to reveal who Carlo was. I can no longer find that website.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is an old thread that I replied to over on ebay with a bit of discussion about Carlo. It is worth a read.&nbsp; One of the more interesting responses contains the following information:</p><p><br /></p><p><i>&quot;attached in the back of the painting was a paper that reads-About Our Paintings-Artcraft of Hollywood is fortunate to have under exclusive contract 43 talented young artists who paint by special order only the beautiful originals our art directors create. Each and every artist has his own technique and style which therefore prohibits the finding of another painting exactly such as this.</i></p><p><i>It is our aim to turn art &quot;yearners&quot; into art owners by offering sensiblyh priced Originals by American Artists</i></p><p><i>We hope you feel the same emotion when looking at this beautiful painting as the artist felt when he was painting it. Judge its value by how much feeling you get out of it and how strong the felling registers. Artcraft of Hollywood&quot;</i></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://community.ebay.com/t5/Archive-Mid-Century-Modern/Carlo-of-Hollywood/td-p/2466281" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://community.ebay.com/t5/Archive-Mid-Century-Modern/Carlo-of-Hollywood/td-p/2466281" rel="nofollow">http://community.ebay.com/t5/Archive-Mid-Century-Modern/Carlo-of-Hollywood/td-p/2466281</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
