Stan Cline 'Dobra's Drive-In / Nostalgia Gallery' Framed Art Print

This item is a framed art print by Stan Cline, titled 'Dobra's Drive-In / Nostalgia Gallery Chatsworth, California'. The print depicts a vibrant, retro scene featuring classic cars parked in front of a mid-century modern drive-in restaurant named 'Dobra's'. Dominant colors in the artwork are blues for the sky, greens for foliage, and varied hues for the vintage automobiles, including a prominent yellow and green two-tone car, a light blue car, and a red sports car. The drive-in itself shows architectural elements typical of the 1950s or 60s, including a tall, ornate spire-like structure. The print is housed within a dark brown frame, possibly wood or a wood-look material, with a gold or light brown inner border that acts as a mat, separating the artwork from the frame. Text visible on the mat includes 'STAN CLINE' at the top left, 'Nostalgia Gallery' in a script font at the bottom center, and 'CHATSWORTH, CALIFORNIA' below it on the right. A smaller line of text at the bottom left appears to indicate copyright information: 'COPYRIGHT STAN CLINE 1988'. The print is under glass or acrylic glazing. Visible condition issues include reflections on the glazing, which obscure some details of the image, and a general impression of age appropriate for an item from 1988. The frame appears to be in good condition with no obvious chips or cracks from the visible portion, though closer inspection would be needed to confirm. The overall impression is one of a well-preserved piece of nostalgic art.
