Set of two framed sixties prints both hand signed and dated 1963. The prints measure approximately 9.0" high and 11.0" wide, and they would look great as a set hanging in any room. The frames are gold and the print color inside matches the frame, each a very finely detailed drawing of a country home. Very decorative and mood setting, they come to you direct from the wall of a snowy Vermont country estate.

Fun Winnie the Pooh framed artwork is very well done signed "Lilian" by an artist in Puerta Vallarta, Mexico in 2002. To be honest, we are not sure what medium was used to produce this work- with magnification it appears to be done with very thin, colored twigs. I suppose we could remove the glass from the 7" x 5" framed work, but we'll leave that to you. Suffice it to say that the colors and detail of this Winnie the Pooh depiction is not only finely done but also interesting in texture, in excellent condition as part of a San Diego, CA estate collection; cross listed on Toys & Children 3.

New listing! Great pair of old wall plaques depicting a man and woman of most likely Aztec, Incan, or Mayan origin. Decorative and finely detailed, these plaques measure approximately 8.5" x 8.5" and are made of a very unique composite material that appears as fine flakes of different colors, meant to capture the appearance of granite. The male is particularly well done with the head of the bird protruding from his ornate headdress. Excellent condition and mounted on black, tiered wood wall plaques; ready for hanging!

Fun pair of signed Gelakooska prints of a bike and an airplane, perfect for a children's room. The whimsical bicycle #12 is ready for speed and action with stars on its rear fender and is colorful and vibrant in its coloring. The equally whimsical airplane, also #12, is similarly built for speed with stars on the wings and colors of red, blue, yellow, white, and gray set against a green background. Both prints are framed in simple wood frames and are in very good condition, measuring approximately 14.75" x 11.75". Both prints are signed in the lower right Gelakooska and come direct from a major Los Angeles, CA estate collection of mid-century; cross listed on Toys & Sports 3.

Pretty Italian hand painted enamel on porcelain framed plaques evoke the look and feel of the 1950s and 1960s in their presentation and colors. Each plaque is in a nicely crafted wood frame, contrasting an octagonal outer edge with the interior oval which frames the picture. Each painting is truly a miniature work of art, all hand painted and whimsical in the depictions of femm fatales of the day decked out in their Sunday finery. The drawings are fun and vibrant in their use of color, enamel on porcelain and trimmed with gold along the edges. The pictures are set against a matte background to really make them shine, and the backs have a hook and a no slip surface to help them stay straight on the wall. Each of the 2 plaques meausure 6.5" wide and 9.5" high including the top ring hook. Each of the paintings is in excellent condition, and the frames have a few nicks here and there and a little crazing on the front veneer, but frankly if we didn't see that we'd find such pieces suspect. Great find, direct from a major Omaha, NE collector of fifties and sixties mid century design.

Very fine framed and signed Ruane Manning dog lithograph wherein we can't decide whether we like the litho or the frame better. Artist Ruane Manning creates spectactular works of art with a reverence for nature and the creatures that share our planet, and his images come to life through the expert use of light, authentic detailing and intimate knowledge of his subject's form, behavior and habitat. Ruane studied at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, then spent several years as an advertising artist. Ruane has won awards from the prestegious Philadelphia Art Alliance for his illustrations and sculpture. In 1968, his first wildlife print was published. Since then, he has won international acclaim for original oil paintings and works created for such companies as The Danbury Mint, The Franklin Mint, and The Hamilton Collection. The carved wood frame is most likely Amish in origin, beautifully carved on all 4 corners with a heart and flower design and really setting off the picture within. The print itself is clearly of very fine quality with excellent detail and realism evident in the depiction of the dog. This is a perfect work for a variety of home decor and locations, with the dog framed in the reeds and grasses with birds flying overhead and trees in the background. The print is signed in the lower right corner and also hasa 1994 copyright of the Donald Art Co. and "Litho in USA". Both frame and print are in excellent condtiion; the frame measures approximately 15.5" x 13.5" while the print itself measures 9.75" x 7.75". Right off the wall of New Canaan, CT country estate; cross listed on Pets 3. /85

Hard to find pair of vintage Mexican feather art, two wonderfully colorful and detailed renditions of birds with beautiful flowing plumage sitting on a tree branch surrounded by various leaves and flowers. The vibrant colors of the birds are set against a pure black background for striking effect, and they're framed in nicely carved wood frames that have great style and detail craftsmanship in and of themselves; they measure approximately 12.25" x 6.5". Feather art makes bird art look so real, but it was very time consuming and complex to do well and thus has fallen out of mainstream arts and crafts today. Well done feather art has always commanded strong prices and necessitated a good framing, and these are no exception. One thing that stands out about the quality of these is actually not the feathers but the detail with which the elaborate floral backgrounds were painted to complement the birds. One frame has a stamp on the back for Mexi-Mart in Toronto, Ohio while the other has a small "Made Mexico" paper label. Both frames, the glass protector, and the feather art within are all in very good condition, right off the wall of a farmhouse in the countryside outside Altoona, PA.

New listing! Whimsical folk art hand stiched needlework pig, perfect for hanging in any kitchen to add flair and guaranteed to generate complements from your guests. These are very hard to find, and this one has quite a lot of age to it. Like any good butcher, you can have your ready reference guide right on the wall as different color and pattern fabrics are used to depict the individual sections of this tasty pig- butt, loin, ham, spareribs, picnic, and of course bacon. Note the curly tail. In addition to the main design, the perimeter and corners of the work are nicely detailed with flowers and other whimsical decoration. The art is in good condition with the exception of some age spots and water staining, some of which can likely be cleaned but we advise against it and think it's perfect just as it is- if it didn't look this way we'd be skeptical about the age and origins. Direct from a Ft. Lauderdale, FL waterway estate, this fun example of 20th century folk art is sure not to last long!

Original signed Chinese art rendering of "The Great Wall", number 13 out of 50 produced, and signed by the artist A. Pelloton (uncertain this is the exact spelling of the end of his/her name) and marked with hand rendered "A. P." red mark. The drawing is a somewhat stylized view of the Great Wall of China, with other Chinese buildings in the foreground and the mountains of the countryside in the background. None of our staff were sure of the exact technique used to make this red tint drawing / painting, so we'll leave it to say that it's very unusual and beautiful with the mono-color red hues. It's hand signed under the work "The Great Wall", 13/50, and the artist's signature. With frame, it measures approximately 14.75" high and 11.5" wide, while the artwork itself is 6.125" in diameter.

Very striking and unusual Kay Harsha painting on plastic, in a very nicely carved wood frame. The work is of a colorful basket of flowers, in colors of yellow, orange, white, and beige. Fine black lines provide textured detail to the woven basket and highlighting the flower petals. This provides an interesting texture to the work and gives the flower basket a three dimensional effect. Both flowers and basket are also very well detailed, and the subtle yet colorful flowers make it perfect for a variety of room settings. Signed in the lower right Kay Harsha. The painting itself measures approximately 20.0" x 16" or 27.75" x 23.5" with the frame, and frame and painting are in good condition. /145

Very nicely done painting on copper plate "Children At Play" and signed "Kaye" in the lower right. Two little girls in white dresses with touches of red and yellow respectively toss a red ball back and forth, while a boy in brown pants looks on. We particularly like the muted pastel colors of the trees and forest in the background, capturing all the hues of blue, pink, and purple set against the white fluffly clouds in the background. It's in excellent condition and mounted in a nice gold wood gilt frame with a linen separation panel that could be cleaned slightly if you so desire. The artwork itself is an excellent example of enameling on copper, and the plate itself measures approximately 16.0" x 12.25" while the frame measures approximately 22.5" x 18.5"; cross listed on Toys & Children 3 and direct from a Kansas City estate.

Fun 1987 Betsy Cameron photographic print by Bruce McGaw Graphics of "Two Children on the Beach." It's a touching scene of two children, the little boy's arm around the little girl's neck, staring out at the ocean surf. The quality of the print is high, and details are vivid such as the worn, uneven rim of the young girl's hat. The print is in good condition with no tears and one minor 1.0" topical scratch which is very difficult to see. It's ready for a frame and measures approximately 24.0" wide and 18.0" high, coming to you rolled and unframed. /22

New listing! Very well done twin solid mahogany wood carvings in very good condition except one tooth missing from the crown out of the dragon's mouth (see photo). This set is wonderful, very highly detailed, and both items measure approximately 9" tall and 6" wide. The wood is solid mahogany, and both masks were very intricately hand carved. We obtained these items from a woman who traveled the world and was a serious collector of many exotic items. The detail is superb, and the smoothness of the faces really add to the quality.

A nice signed Beshlie English color prints c 1978 can be yours and ready for a mount and frame. The Dancing Puppet recalls that long before the elaborate marionette and puppet theatres appeared, the one man puppet show with a simple roll-down backdrop was a popular street entertainment. The doll was often used to act out dying speeches of heroes or outlaws and the confessions of murderers. The detail and colors are typically high quality as Beshlie has a very strong history and reputation as a top illustrator. The signed print itself measure approximately 9.75" x 7.25" and it is mounted on a black border cardboard frame suitable for placement in a picture frame. It also comes with a cardboard backing for use with the name, description, and artist of the print.

Set of 4 antique paper French postcards c 1905 feature the lithographed flower prints of French artist E. Guillot and a couple of interesting stamps and a note to a sister. Each measures approximately 5.5" x 3.5" and are in very good condition except that 3 have the 2 paper sheets separated. The Guillot flowers are very richly colored and highly detailed, and each of the cards includes his signature while a few also have other inscriptions such as one that notes the card is "un bon souvenir" (a good souvenir). These cards came as folded paper, and very few have survived without separating but it really doesn't matter since these are almost certainly destined as a group in a frame. For documentation though, you'll love to keep the backs addressed to Miss Mathilda Morin of Franklin, NH from her sister Helena who was obviously living or visiting France. On one, she writes "Dear Mathilda. I will be home Saturday. Please tell papa to come to the cars. From your sister, Helena". Each of the cards is marked with the Carte Postal of France and stamped with 1906 postmarks and all retain the original stamps which may in themselves be quite rare. Great for a postcard collector or an art lover, and these typically go for $12 each at an antique postcard retailer so enjoy the great buy.
