  1. Hey bywaterloo, I am in New Orleans and seeing if you still have these signs? Interested in parting with any of them?
  2. I just assumed it was western by the colors, but now that I look at it; It does look like it could be Scotland. Those are sheep in the background and that is a chimney smoke stack coming from a ship.
  3. I think it may just paint strokes of grass but thanks for the insight.
  4. Also, it measures about 18" wide by 15" tall.
  5. The strokes are visible. I think it is watercolor on paper/card stock. It is not on canvas.
  6. Thanks for the help. I am going to have to look into that aspect and that the basket could be from there. It would make sense, since it rains a lot there and it would need to be elevated. Thanks for t...

  13. Pottery Mark: Roseville 1914-1930 Roseville Pottery is a favorite. A lot of Roseville wasn’t marked but your piece and its mark was used between 1914 and 1930. Ink stamped (can be black, blue or gree...
  14. Thanks a bunch for your help. Do you think the owner put his name on it because he used it or was this box made for someone else?
  15. I have had this mug or pitcher (possibly stoneware) posted for a long time and I have search a wide variety of key terms and past accounts, yet I can't find anything about it. I know that someone out ...
  16. They all came from my father's estate. I have searched past auctions and the internet and the painted "buttocks" baskets range from $100USD to thousands of dollars. I have a whole bunch of country pri...
  17. MuranoArtGlass, would you by any chance know about how old this piece is and approximate value?
  18. The poster has a styrofoam backer board but it is not glued to it. It is there to keep the shape and protect the print. Without measuring, the poster is about 18" wide and about 36"-42" tall. There i...
