Hi I recently picked this up at an estate. She was dirty and half the glass was missing. She measures 21 x 8. There is someone mildew or something damage. The girl said at Michaels it probably can be restored. It is just paper. Nonetheless I love her. It is signed by "Gilbert". Does anyone have any more information to pass on? Thanks in advance.
Oooh! She is absolutely beautiful! Worth restoration in my opinion.
She's lovely!
GOOD CATCH !
After research:
Charles Allan GILBERT, (September 3, 1873 – April 20, 1929), better known as C. Allan Gilbert, was a prominent American illustrator.

Thank you kyratango!! Yes I fell in love with it. She was on a table with half the glass missing and dirty. Kinda wish I didn't have the back redone should have kept the orginal? I didn't know this little missy was worth anything.
Thank you Jewels!
Great!!
Very good find!
