Summary edit

Description Lot 3124-10: Paintings of Naval Aviation during World War II: Abbott Collection. #80: “Life in Their Hands.” Artwork by Howard Baer. “The deft, sure touch of coverall-clad WAVE parachute riggers finds a vital outlet in righting the silken shrouds of parachutes. There is no place for error here. The parachute is the Navy flyer’s ticket to earth and safety. At the parachute loft, these WAVES inspect, dry, clean, and pack parachutes with Navy skill.” (7/10/2015).
