Hello Collectors Weekly, I'm hoping to identify the artist of this piece, the origin, date, etc. perhaps. I can feel the ink on the silk screen or tapestry material and the dark blue-purple glossy painted wood frame is 26 3/8 inches X 35 1/4 inches. The name and address on the frame reads: "HAMLET CUSTOM PICTURE FRAMING 1412 North Wells Street CHICAGO, ILLINOIS 60610 (312) 642-4444 642-4349" on the top and bottom horizontal boards of the frame and there are four stamps two reading: "25 ANCO BILT" and two reading: "35 ANCO BILT", one one each of the frame boards and each with the image of a compass. The piece came from a collector's estate is New Mexico I think (and can check into) and the collector was known to collect Western art and many various art works. I also have some prints and other pieces from this estate but at the moment I'm hoping for any help identifying this artist or maybe directions to an authority on such pieces. Thanks, Aaron
