Your photos are awfully small to see any details. Is there any signature or copyright information on the bottom? (might be under the frame). It looks like a modern reproduction to me... maybe from the 80s or 90s when Art Deco had a resurgence. I'm not an expert, but the frame makes me think that it's modern.
Thanks, I will check it
Under a the frame, I found signed and numbered signature of Jennifer (last name illegible) and numbered 175/350. No copyright date but says it is "Number 5 in the Mercury Typography 'What's your Face?' series by the Morla Designs and screened by Hero Presentation Printing"
Well, that certainly helps! Here's the link: http://designarchives.aiga.org/#/entries/%20credits%3A%22Mercury%20Typography%22/_/detail/relevance/desc/2/7/8742/futura/1
Thanks, that's a big help!
