Cream of Wheat Advertising art (2), one by noted artist Leslie Thrasher (1889-1936). The Thrasher piece depicts Huckleberry Finn, Tom Sawyer and Aunt Polly. The second shows just the company face, a chef named "Rastus" modeled after Frank L. White, as the "Man who put Cream of Wheat on the calendar." Both framed and matted pieces measure 16.5"x 20.5" and are in near new condition. Please see photos for more details.
