ORIGINAL PAINTING WAS DONE BY FRANK SINATRA HIMSLEF!! Art on canvas measures 16" X 20" (Copy Right 2006 Sonny King Productions) The original oil painting of this Art on Canvas was given to my husband Sonny King after they completed filming the movie "Robin and the Seven Hoods." The artwork being offered today is number 4 of 300. Numbers 1 and 2 will remain in my family, and number 3 was given to a very prestigious and loved friend of mine and Sonny's. This is the very first to be introduced and sold publicly. Frank's early paintings were only given to close friends and family members. This is the first time I, Peggy King have offered this Art on Canvas, which was produced from the original oil painting by Frank Sinatra himself in 1957 which still hangs in our home today. It is on canvas which is like the original canvas Frank used for his oil painting. The name of the portrait by Frank is "Self Portrait". Frank was inspired to paint this self portrait of himself after his starring role in the 1957 movie "The Joker Is Wild", which tells the story of Joe E. Lewis, a singer and comedian who was popular from the 1920's to the 1950's. This movie won the Academy Award for best Music. Lewis (1902-1971) began as a night club singer, but lost his voice after having his throat slit by mobsters of that era. Not being able to sing any more Lewis
