I HAVE SINCE LEARNED THAT GREGG COPELAND WAS SIMPLY THE MAN WHO PRODUCED AND FRAMED AN UNKNOWN NUMBER OF ORIGINAL CHROMAGRAPHS BY THE RENOWNED ARTIST "ROBERT D. H. BIDNER".THESE WERE SOLD IN UPPER END DEPT. STORES SUCH AS MACY'S IN THE EARLY 1980's. THEY RETAILED AT THAT TIME FOR $500.00-$800.00. THEY ARE NOW APPRAISED IN THE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS! ROBERT BIDNER IS WELL KNOWN FOR HIS REALISM STYLE OF ART, AND DID MANY PAINTINGS OF CARS AND BUILDINGS, "THE FLYING ROOLS", "THE CALIFORNIA KITTY", "NEW YORK BROWNSTONE",AND "THE CASTLE SOLITUDE", TO NAME JUST A FEW! HE ONLY DID THREE LOCOMOTIVES, OF WHICH TWO OF THE ORIGINALS ARE IN PRIVATE COLLECTIONS AND THE OTHER IN A MUSEUM. ROBERT BIDNER PASSED AWAY IN 1983, WHICH EXPLAINS THE VALUE OF HIS WORKS IN THIS DAY AND AGE!

: measures 54"x40". It is of an old
: locomotive bearing the number 88 on it.It
: states on the back, "Like all original

: hung in direct sunlight."It also bears
: the name Jad & Co.and the date 1979. I
: am seeking any info as I am considering its

: the
: company that did the framing. I wasn't able
: to find much about him either. I am also
: trying to find out if the paintings by the
: artist (Robert Bidner in my case) have any
: value. Let me know if y9ou find anything.
: Thanks

: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:I
: have a really cool paper sculpture, framed
: with the Greg Copeland signature in pencil
: at the bottom. I really don't think that
: signagure was from the framer, although it
: is a three-dimensional piece.--Not the corny
: 80s, foofoo kind of paper sculpture, but a
: sophistocated geometric that measures
: 14" tall by 4 1/4" wide, and the
: silver metal frame is 2" deep. It is
: very cleverly and well executed. So theres
: my story about Greg Copeland. Hope it helps
: and hope it helps me too. Regards to all,

: Racena, your geometric design sounds exactly
: like mine including the deep silver frame.
: Mine is numbered so there were more than one
: made. WE just might have twins. I too am
: trying to find out about Greg Copeland
