1900 signed, impeccably done, O/B painting of the Claud Hamilton

The Claud Hamilton was built in 1900 under James Holden’s patent per a GER (Great Eastern Railway) order. Holden came from Quaker stock and was noted for hie economical designs. It was the largest express locomotive on the GER. It had 7’ driving wheels and a large round-topped 4’-9” boiler, winning it a gold medal at the 1900 Paris Exhibition! This 5.5” X 7.5” oil painting on card stock is painted with amazing detail almost to the point that your first viewing will lean towards the thought, is this a photograph? Believe me it’s not! It's indistinctly signed of which I’ve shown (2) views of the signature at the end. -------Please read the following before bidding------- 1, SHIPPING IS A GUESS, SO PLEASE DON’T PAY UNTIL I SEND THE INVOICE!!!!!
