When rummaging through the archives, one finds many treasures waiting to be re-discovered. Here are more examples of 70 year old works from a time where his art was likely the only way Fritz could escape into a world of peace and beauty. He helped others do the same, and impressed at least one Army General enough to get special assignments. Assignments that often kept him out of direct combat. Thankfully.
