"It may be that one of my family members purchased these at an art gallery in San Francisco during the '50s. The label on the back of the paintings identifies the gallery as the Maxwell Gallery on Sutton street. Although the gallery closed not too long ago, I was able to contact Mrs. Maxwell.  She still has all the records from the gallery going all the way back into 1940!!!  BUT, there was not one record of my water colors. She thinks from the numbering on the tag it was a consignment. So, that's about all I have gathered so far. Still trying to find a market value and a market place for the four water colors. Any help Danton and JCB fans might provide would be much appreciated."

"As I recall John found these children sitting on the desert. These are pastels and are about 15" by 21". 

"My dad knew Mr Burroughs and we lived in Pacific Palisades, CA when he acquired these beautiful paintings.  I was about 14 years old some 55 years ago. Around that time we often watched a TV show with Art Baker called You Asked For It where the "Burroughs Babies" had been requested to be seen.   I wonder if these are two of them."

We are currently working on a tribute to ERB artist, P. J. Monahan, which will contain many anecdotes, illlustrations and bio information from PJM's son, James G. Monahan.
I have suggested to James that many ERB fans would be interested in the items in his collection that feature PJM art.
Below is a list of items that Mr. Monahan would be interested in selling to collectors at fair market prices.
