Brig Posted July 14, 2020 Share #1 Posted July 14, 2020 Don't know if this was ever posted here...another Hank Porter piece that sold on Heritage Auctions. Here's the description that accompanied it: "Hank Porter - WWII USMC Insignia "Conquistador" Design (Walt Disney, c. 1940s). From the hand of Hank Porter comes a very rare "human" World War II Insignia. This was done for the United States Marines Public Relations for the Western Area. The design appears to reference Spanish conquistador Vasco Núñez de Balboa (1475-1519). Graphite with a red circle and blue highlights. Artwork is on vellum type paper with an approximate image size of 5.5" x 5.5". Fine condition." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
