Charles Banks Wilson (1918-2013) - CHARLES BANKS WILSON (1918-2013) RARE 1939 LITHOGRAPH. Charles Banks Wilson (1918-2013) The New Rich 1939 The outstanding early lithograph, Wilson's second, was published in an edition of only 20 prints and is signed by the artist in pencil below the image lower right and titled lower left. Wilson's remarks in Hunt's book are: 'It was during and after the Depression of the early thirties that some Indians began to get large royalties. I saw new cars come before new homes, which made sense if you think about it. Some people, not just Indians, pretty much lived in their car while the new house was being built.'
