Schaeffing worked at the Charles E. Cooper studio in the 1950s and like so many other Cooper artists, his work is reminiscent of the type done by Coby Whitmore or Joe DeMers.
Recently I received a message from Rachel Davies, who has a blog called Old Soul Retro Times. Rachel wrote, "I was fortunate enough to have Jim share his story with me. Any help in spreading this around would be much appreciated."
So if you'd like to see more of Jim Schaeffing's art (including his recent work) and a couple of photos of the artist, drop by Rachel's blog and enjoy! Click here for her interview with Jim Schaeffing
