(1960s) Painting of an old salt playing his concertina squeeze box on shore. LeRoy carved an old driftwood backing for the painting, adding to its charm. Bohdan was a larger than life character who befriended Bob and LeRoy and was a common sight at OA over the years. A bit James Bond and a bit Commander McBragg, Bohdan was a scientist, adventurer, architect, ladies man, international traveler and occasional artist. He was most probably Polish, but changed his name to appear Cajun in origin. Bohdan was taken with the charm of OA and began submitting works of nautically themed art for display in the warehouse showroom. Bob and LeRoy took these token of friendship whether or not they wanted them! This and the following lot are works of art by Bohdan. One can see the improvement he made through the years. They certainly have OA gravitas!28"x16"VG+ with typical wear
