Connett III, he was invited to illustrate two Derrydale Press books, Feathered Game (1929) and Upland Game Bird Shooting in America (1930), as well as providing covers for Grouse Feathers, and De Shootinest Gent'man, among others. Redheads in Flight, measures 8 3/8" x 6 1/4", and comes in the 12 3/4" x 9 3/4" original frame. In excellent condition, dated 1922 and signed by the artist on the lower left.
