Lot Description
BLACKSTOCK, Gregory (1946-2023). The WW2 Corsair US Navy Fighters. 2011.

Graphite, colored pencil, and permanent marker on paper depicting numerous different models of the Vought Corsair. Visible area: 42 x 18 in. Frame: 45 3/4 x 21 3/4 in.

The Vought Corsair was the name of several aircraft used for the United States Navy, primarily during the Second World War and Korean War, with the F4U being the most well-known. Due to design flaws the craft was never popular with pilots, earning the nicknames "the hog" and "bent-wing widow maker."
This lot is located in Chicago.
