Artwork
Treasured By The Goudy Family Tom Gintjee was a highly talented cartoonist and designed the
original 508th Red Devil logo. He went on to produce many pieces of
art for the regiment such as those used for seating or table placards at
many reunions.
He also produced the "prayer" seen
here which, as far as we know, is a one-of-a-kind and which was presented
to Bill Goudy. Amongst the many details to be seen here is what may be the
first and only rendition of the red devil logo as seen from the rear |

Gintjee Christmas Card This
hand drawn 1992 Christmas card is a Gintjee classic with its timeless
plea for word peace and some unique
symbolism included in its motif.
Note the map coordinates bathed in the light of the Christmas Star
that denote the location of Jerusalem . Note also the cross formed by
the shadow of the knife thrust into the ground. Tom Gintjee was
not only a great artist but a man with a clever mind.
Tom wrote on the card that we should "Once in A While Remember
Gintjee".
We do, Tom, we certainly do. |
