Description: Awesome Artist Signed Print by John "Jack" Havey, or better known as Jack Havey. This Print is Titled: The Maine Lobsterman, and in the lower right corner he signed Jack Havey (see photos 7 & 8, and use the photos zoom feature). There are 9 photos of this collector for you to view. This is a highly sought after and hard to find auto'd print. The total size of the framed piece is: 20 1/2" x 16 7/8" ( I'm guessing that the print is probably around 16" x 14'' beneath the matting. The artist (now passed away) was from Maine and was very close with this region. Jack Harvey was also the founder of an award-winning advertising agency and an acclaimed artist in the tradition of Norman Rockwell. Mr. Havey who was born in the Downeast town of Sullivan, founded Ad-Media of Augusta in 1960. The company produced television and radio commercials, political campaign ads, and independent videos. His clients ranged from Hathaway Shirts and Central Maine Power to International Paper and Sebago Shoes. He was a successful portrait artist, illustrator, and writer who captured his Maine coastal upbringing in his humorous memoir, "West Sullivan Days", published in 2001. He created cover portraits for sports magazines of stars such as Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Joe Namath, O.J Simpson, Babe Ruth, and Ted Turner. He also produced scores of oil paintings of well-known and ordinary Maine people ranging from governors and business leaders to a hairstylist and a Christmas tree farmer. Norman Rockwell once wrote that Mr. Havey's illustrations "reflect a unique, warm and very professional talent with people." As an advertising executive, Mr. Havey created the successful Think About it campaign that help elect Maine's first independent governor, James Longley Sr. Christian Potholm, professor of government at Bowdoin College, said Longley trailed Democrat George Mitchell by 30 points in the weeks before the 1974 election before Mr. Havey's ads ran. "Longley got all the credit, but without Havey, Jim would not have won, " Potholm said. "He came up with the slogan for Longley: Think About It. There was truly something magical about Jack's ability to look at a political situation and capture the dialogue and imagery that would speak to Maine people."
