New
listing! Very nice framed vintage needlepoint work that would make
a super gift- "Good Friends Are Like Diamonds, Precious And
Rare". A nicely detailed basket of flowers decorates the top
of the work, and a colorful geometric pattern frames the edges of
this 15.0" x 12.0" framed needlework. It's covered with
glass and framed in a simple painted blue frame, ready to hang on
your wall. While you can tell from the material that this work has
some real age, it's in very good condition and has a great message.

Very
finely done oil painting of a serene early evening village scene
set against the banks of a small river and evoking a European feel.
We love the cool warm blue colors that dominate this painting, and
the artsit's technique is quite interesting in contrasting rectangles
of paint application done with putty knife type tools as seen in
the water with fine, elongated brush strokes that comprise the sky.
It's a visually very appealing work that is a perfect complement
to most any home decor, and the colors of blued, grays, reds, and
yellows with white highlights are very vibrant and exude a calming
feeling. The painting is artist signed in the top right corner by
Tom Abram, and it's very nicely framed in a wood frame with a black
band that really sets off the painting- framed by Grand Central
Artists Materials in New York City and retaining their original
paper label on the rear. The canvas and frame are both in very good
condition, and framed the piece measures approximately 27.5"
x 23.5". Priced to sell, it comes to you right off the wall
of a major Greenwich, CT horse country estate; cross listed on Bigger
Ticket 1. |

New
listing! Super set of 4 antique early color lithograph French postcards
c 1906 depicting 4 couples in the fashions of the times. These are
French in origin, and bear the inscription of the Carte Postale
along with addresses and a brief note. Each of these 4 antique postcards
has the rich colors and the highly detailed printing for which this
era is well known, part of a major estate collection of antique
and vintage postcards from around the world. Two of the postcards
have original French 1906 stamps that may have significant value
themselves along with French and U.S. 1906 postmarks. Each postcard
also has either a French or English address and note, and one note
is particularly interesting- "I received your lovely letter
a long time ago. I would not write before for many good reasons.
Please, excuse me. Mathilda. Love and kisses. "Me". Each
card measures approximately 5.25" x 3.5" and is in very
good condition. Great for a frame and makes an interesting and unique
gift and conversation piece for any postcard collector or just an
art lover! Cross listed on Memorabilia 2. |

Very
finely done original lithograph c. 1903 by well known illustrator
Howard Chandler Christy (1873-1952) "Looking Backwards",
a portrait piece very indicative of his most famous work in the
early 1900s. Christy appeared regularly in magazines through 1905.
At right is a rather tentative two-color cover for the January 1900
issue of The Ladies Home Journal. The early 1900's were a period
of intense effort. His work appeared in more and more books and
in all the major magazines of the day - Harpers, Scribner's, Century,
McClures, etc. Christy was also known for his gift book formats,
large format books with lush illustrations including The American
Girl and The Christy Girl, both done in 1906. This lithograph was
copyrighted by Charles Scribner & Sons in 1903, most likely
artwork done for their magazine, and was printed by A. Grignard
of New York. Across the bottom of the print are the marks for Charles
Scribner & Sons, the copyright date, A. Grignard, title Looking
Backwards, and signed & dated 1903 by Howard Chandler Christy.
The work is housed in a nice period frame, measures approximately
22.0" x 19.0", and is in very good condition; cross listed
on Bigger Ticket 2. /325 |

Another
fun pair of signed Gelakooska prints of a fire truck and a train
engine, perfect for a children's room. The whimsical fire truck
engine #12 is ready for speed and action with its ladders and hoses
at the ready, floor gear shift rising in the open air cab, and it's
colorful and vibrant in its coloring with red, blue, and yellow
as the dominant colors set against a green background. The equally
whimsical railroad train engine, also #12, is similarly colored
with red, purple, orange, yellow, and acqamarine set against a white
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 2. |

Hard
to find vintage Mexican feather art in an extra large size, a depiction
of two wonderfully colorful and detailed 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 it's framed in a nicely
carved wood frame that has great style and detail craftsmanship
in and of itself; the frame measures a full12.5" high x 10.5",
much larger than the norm. 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. The back of the frame has a stamp for Mexi-Mart in Toronto,
Ohio. The frame, 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. /65 |

More
old, early 20th century portrait prints from an upstate Vermont
country home. These are the old high quality prints which have the
look and feel of photographs, but of course photographic prints
don't hold up this well. These prints are also done on heavy photograph
paper and frankly are often mistaken for photographs. The set would
look great hanging together on a wall. All measurements are approximate
and prints are in good condition except for occasional edge wear
which will disappear into a frame. Great vintage collectibles! 1.
Scribe holding paper, hand resting on a book and elaborate feathered
hat measuring 11.0" x 9.0". 2. Woman, breast exposed,
breast feeding her baby 11.0" x 9.0" 3. Handsome young man
in late colonial apparel 11.5" x 9.0". 4. Woman breast feeding
plump baby, with man looking on measuring 11.5" x 8.75". 5.
Pensive young man leaning on elbow 10.25" x 9.0" 6. Old man
with white beard and receding forehead 11.0" x 8.25". It's very
hard to find these old photographic quality prints of the age anymore...perfect
for framing and a great price! Cross listed on Memorabilia 2.

Very
well done vintage needlepoint of a squirrel looking hopefully up
into the flowering tree. It's very colorful in shades of brown,
blue, green, red, orange, and yellow set off against a neutral cream
background, and it's nicely framed in a simple oval wood frame measuring
approximately 14.75" x 11.5". The needlework is in excellent condition
with no snags or tears, but it could probably use a little cleaning.
The frame is also in good condition with 3 little nicks you can
touch up if you so desire. |

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. |

Original
signed and numbered print by Spanish artist Pla Domenech in excellent
condition. Pla Domenech was born in Barcelona, Spain in 1917 and
was best known for his interpretive works of the people, villages,
and cities of Spain. Domenech's works are represented in numerous
museum collections including the Santander in Rom and Venice, and
he represented Spain at the NY Worlds Fair in 1960. Art critic sums
up this particular print when writing "we are given a new testimonial
of the firmness of lines, values, colors, and forms in a seductive
combination of primitive expressiveneess and spiritual delicacy.
The coherence of these elements creates a plastic reality in the
work of the painter who is intensively impressionistic." This print
itself measures approximately 19.0" wide and 13.25" high and has
the original Collector's Guild of New York certificate of authentication
on the rear of the 24.0" x 18.25" frame. It is signed by the artist
and numbered as 82/275, and there's a brief bio on the artist attached
to the back. Great price, consigned by a Greenwich, Connecticut
estate. |

Dyansen
Gallery 90th Birthday Retrospective Erte
print that comes right off the wall of a Santa Barbara, CA home.
With a classic Erte and Art Deco look, a sleek and elongated woman
with blond hair and long, flowing dress graces this simple yet elegant
poster and complements rather than detracts from the Dyansen Gallery
Birthday Retrospective text. Mounted in a nice goldtone metal frame,
it measures approximately 30.25" x 20.25" and is in very
good condition save a single blemish, very hard to see, in the lower
left corner and which may be on the glass rather than the print
itself. Cross listed on Deco 2. |

Beautifully
framed in gilt wood 17.5" high and 15.5" wide, this vintage plastic
etching is very detailed and whimsical in design. The Jewish couple
return from the market, and the gentleman offers a tasty treat for
the little bird sitting on the fire hydrant. While we are not expert
in this style, we believe the effect to be created by fine burns
in the plastic to create the dark black effects which create the
depth and detail in the picture. Note even the hanging baskets in
teh window and the leaves on the sidewalk. Very well done, consigned
by a large Scarsdale, NY estate at a great price.
