Reaching millions of homes every day for nearly 12 years, Bob Ross, with his gentle voice and ability to pain a landscape in thirty minutes right before your very eyes in your own living room, is unquestionably America's favorite art instructor. Offered here is a first edition hardcover of Ross's first book, "The Joy of Painting", signed by the artist at the height of his fame, circa 1991, in flourishing black ballpoint pen - "To Carl, A special friend - wishing you every success. Happy Painting, Bob Ross, 1991". The book contains sixty of Ross' famous paintings, all originally created during the television show of the same name. This is the first Bob Ross autograph we have ever offered! In fine condition with minor handling wear to the dust cover. Accompanied by a full Letter of Authenticity from Beckett Authentication Services (BAS).
