    This is on metal/tin 17.5 x 23.5 inches. It has some scratches an obvious wear aroun the perimeter from framing. Beneath the keys is “Catholic Education Co’. The copyrighted date is marred so i cannot tell how old this is. I cannot seem to find any information on line. Does anyone have knowledge of this piece or evade it may be from?

      They have been around since 1904.

      The probably made them and sold them in Catholic shops all over to raise money. maybe provided them to Catholic schools. That symbol in the corner is the Papal Seal, so they were sanctioned by the church.

      My guess would be 1930's. I can never remember the name of that lithographic technique that looks airbrushed.

      Just look up Catholic Educational Co. Tin Lithograph. You will find many examples.

      Thank you so much for the info Celiene. I will look to see if i can find a value for it.

      Consider condition, too. They are quite common, so value won't be too high, sadly.
