Practice Makes Perfect, by Stan Stokes

The USS Sable and USS Wolverine were two paddlewheel steamboats which the USN converted into small flattops during WW II. The ships were used for carrier qualification son the Great Lakes. This painting depicts an SNJ approaching the Wolverine being waved off as its pilot struggles to make a successful trap. The ship is very close to downtown Chicago where it was based for much of the war. . (11.5 x 16) $40
