    This is one of my favorite finds ever! I found this drawing at a local Goodwill store. You can imagine my surprise when I found out that it was actually done by a famous artist. Morris Broderson was a prominent deaf artist who was discovered at a very young age. With the support of his aunt who in turn asked a art professor to take her nephew in and help teach him. This I discovered after contacting a very close friend of Broderson. He had actually given her the other picture that was match to mine. Amazingly he did both at the tender age of 15 in the 1940's! I feel completely honored to have such an amazing artists work. I feel even more honored to share it here.

      RBURR1982,
      Thank you for the news that you have a Morris Broderson art. Which city do you remember finding this art in a Goodwill store? Morris was in the Los Angeles area I think.
