With his masterfully rendered Checking the Mail, world-famous aviation artist Sam Lyons not only presents a superior depiction of grassroots general aviation (GA), he also manages to transcend time. This phenomenally well-done masterpiece portrays a picturesque rural setting featuring a pair of iconic vintage biplane taildraggers: an airborne yellow PT-Stearman and a surface-bound white Waco. While the scene-stealing aircraft represent the glory days of a bygone era, the image also depicts an onlooker admiring the airplanes while he chats on his mobile phone. Also adding to the stunning landscape are the snow-packed mountains in the background.
