I bought these from a estate sale. They had a lot of cool vintage items there. These caught my eye. The actual screen print is 3 1/2 inches by 2 1/2 inches. Any info would be great. Thank you in advance!!!!

If you look at the original it's so detailed, wondering about yours - don't think you have the correct sizing.
(There's a Help section at the very bottom of the page, you should take a look at the photo and scanning tips - tells you how to get your photos to be the right side up.)
Welcome to CW - hope you have more items to share.
Thank you both so much for the info. After looking into these two artists, I found loads of info on the good ole "internet" One thing I found is that Jean Baptiste Pater (Gathering In the Park) was the student of Jean Antoine Watteau (The Scale of Love) in 1713. The connection of these two artists, and having "something" of each of theirs is interesting to me. I'd love to keep them and get them reframed, but I think I might have them looked at.... just in case. Thank you again. I'll be back. I'm sure. Have a great evening.
I'm so glad I found you guys!!!! There is sooooo much information here and everyone seems so eager to help! Yep! I'm hooked. Lol
At closer look through a magnifier, I noticed a signature. I did add a picture of it. Sorry it is sideways. Can anyone tell whose signature this is? It's not much clearer then the picture shows. Please help me find the artist. Thank you again.
