I found some previously "unknown" Redemption artists

ok so i stumbled over some pictures that are used in Redemption cards that have the illustrator as unknown...
here are my discoveries.

the picture used in "Jacob's Dream" was done by Robert Leinweber in 1915 and is ironically titled "Jacob's Dream". The origional now hangs in the New Yourk Public Library Picture Collection

The picture used in "Pharaoh's Throne Room" was painted by Jean Adrien Guignet during the 19th centurey and is titled "Joseph Explaining Pharaoh's Dreams".   This painting is now located in the Giraudon/Bridgeman Art Library...

so anyways i thought this was interesting so i thought i'd share
 ;D

Ya. I've found cards that say Illus. Some Random Illustrator blah blah blah and then I'll look at the reprint and it some other name.

That's pretty rare. The only instances I can think of are studio names (comic books and Angel Wars) and Ned Loeb vs. Joe Boulden (Ned Loeb is kind of like Boulden backwards.)

"Artist Unknown" is my favorite in general! Followed closely by Rembrant (who, as a child, I thought was Raisinbrant, just sayin')
Here's an idea "ding!"
What about special abilities that que off the artist? Yes sir, one more way to fold the old Unlimiteds back into service!
