Description: "By the Railways" *** Please like my father on Facebook for the latest news, special sales prices, and released work. Just search "John Dusko Jr." on Facebook. This auction is for a limited edition print # 156 of 250 in perfect condition. This print measures 15 1/2" x 21". This is an professional offset lithograph print of historic downtown Reading, Pennsylvania at the 7th and Penn Street Crossing. The year is circa 1890. I remember my father having to do extensive research for this print, even down to the wardrobes of the people who appear in the painting. This is one of my personal favorites and they only made 250 which makes this an especially rare find. This Print is personally signed and numbered in pencil by my father. Do not miss the opportunity to get this print at what I believe is a very fair price given the demand. Once these last prints sell out, there will NEVER be any others. About my Dad:John Dusko was a native of Pottstown, Pennsylvania. John has spent the last 50 plus years in Reading, Pennsylvania. As a young boy he always knew his calling was to be an artist and started studying art at the age of 10 with well known local Pennsylvania artist George "Bucky" Walters. John continued his studies in fine art and painting throughout his high school years and graduated in 1954 from the prestigious "New York School of Visual Arts" with a degree in Illustration and Graphic Design. Dusko credits much of his early & present success in the arts to his college teacher and mentor, internationally known artist Burne Hogarth, who at the time Dusko was attending college, was creating the drawings and illustrations for the "Tarzan" character. The influence of Mr. Hogarth can be evidenced in all of John's remarkable "true to life" work.After college and the Army (Korean War), Dusko returned home to work in advertising. As an Art Director, he designed magazines and Christmas Cards, created original illustrations, and accepted numerous personal commissions from clients. His original works can be found in personal collections up and down the East Coast. In 1993, John left advertising to paint full time. John Dusko is officially represented by his son, Tony Dusko, as well as The Frame Guild in Wyomissing, Pennsylvania.
