Albert Alfredson (1907-1977) was the P&C president from 1962-64.
As you can read above, he took classes at both the Chicago Academy and the Art Institute. Mention is also made of a teacher, the local painter, Wellington Reynolds, and it's not hard to see the resemblance.
I happen to own an Albert Alfredson painting. It's one he did of a stone bridge in winter with a stream and trees. Very cold. I love it. I received it from my late brother-in-law in Chicago. He got it from his parents. Who knows where they got it! I would be interested in purchasing one or two more of his paintings, if you know of anyone who owns one. Thank you.
