[FOLK ART]. [UNKNOWN ARTIST (?Jim M.? or ?Jim Mc?)]. Painted Folk Art 45-RPM Record Box with Labor, Religious, Country Music, and Drug Motifs. [Likely Indianapolis, IN, ca. 1980s]. Metal carrying case with handle, with painted artwork inside and out. Approximately 8 ? x 7 ? x 7 ??. Some light wear, occasional rust visible. Very good. This self-work was created by an Indiana union ironworker. It is a highly personal statement with themes of labor, God, Music, motor engines, fear, sex, and drugs. An intriguing self-work, an autobiographical folk art box, a painted ?self-portrait? of an imaginative Midwestern ironworker.
