Mel and I picked this up recently from a gentleman who is trying to settle his mother’s estate.
This appears to be the original frame!
This piece is a large size and is in great shape for its age. It has some character to it, but nothing major.
I have always been a fan of Bunnell and we have many of his works. There is something about his work that always pleases me when I see it.
I have only ever seen Carlo of Hollywood have an image like this. Maybe Bunnell liked Carlo’s painting so much that he decided to make his own rendition. I love both of their examples.
Here is the elusive Carlo of Hollywood Jungle Cats fight scene.
This is the makers sticker on the back of the Bunnell. This piece needs new backing on it, but I can knock that out later. This piece will be added to our other loved Bunnell’s.
Hi! I just found your website by googling Burrell. I found two framed prints with a Burrell signature. I can’t tell what kind of print they are. I live in the Sacramento area. Might I bring them by your shop for a look? Kate Riley

I have 2 silkscreen pictures that I think are James Bunnell but I am having difficulty verifying that. If I send you a picture could you help?

I could take a look, but unfortunately he didn’t sign all of his pieces. Also, there were a lot of artists during that time that produced silkscreens. You can send a pic to shane@hepcatrestorations.com

I recently found a pair of silk screens created by Bunnell. Unfortunately, you are the only souce I’ve found on restoration or cleaning this type of work. Is there any way you could help me locate a place or any tips on doing it myself, regarding the cleaning of this artwork??

Hi, I just stumbled across your site last night and didn’t go to bed until 3 AM. I have an oil painting of that Carlo Of Hollywood or Bunnell jungle cat fight print. It’s by a German artist named M. Delfs and it’s dated 1950. If you’d like to see it, I’ll send you an email with an attachment.
I also have a cool variation on the presentation of that Cosmo de Salvo print from 1943.
You two are amazing… I’ve never felt such a mixture of envy and adoration.
