This is a print that was found in my home...the backround is that it was given to a family member 45 years ago as a present. It is a print of Serment D'Amour the Artist is Jean Mathieu and the year that this print came out was 1749-1815.
Don't know who did these or if they are worth anything. The first picture was matted in white or maybe a cream white, has colored slightly with age. It does have some staining, scuffing, and other damage on the border/frame of the picture. The picture itself is in good condition, depicting a fairy and maybe some gnomes or something with some floral at the top. Night scene, very pretty but not signed anywhere. The second picture depicts a daytime fairy I'm guessing in what looks like an ocean of water. It is matted in a charcoal blue and also has some staining and damage on the mat but the picture itself is in good condition. No signature on this one anywhere, either. Both are 8" X 10".
This is a one of a kind sign pulled from a sidewalk in Pine Bluff, Arkansas. Yes, it was an actual sign that the department of transportation put out. The sign has the same printing on both sides. It states simply: "Danger: Idiots Driving on Sidewalk Have Broken This Utility Cover. Watch Your Step". It is a very funny sign, very eclectic and definitely original. It is made from a stiff cardboard with the text of the sign it looks like printed on. The corners do have a few pushpin holes in it and it has colored slightly with age but otherwise in fine condition. Not sure if I want to let go of this or not, but would just like to know a ballpark figure if anyone has one. Sign measures about 24" long by 18" wide.
This is a nice looking lighter from earlier years. It is a Mascot brand, made in Japan. It is 1 3/4" tall and about 2 1/4" wide. Has a nice pattern with tan and brown almost leather like material. Good investment?
This is a really great little keychain. It celebrates 100 years of the Kodak company. On the front of the keychain at the top it says 1880 - 1980 with the Kodak symbol in the middle. Underneath that is a really neat old stamp captured inside the keychain. It is a 3 cent stamp with a portrait of George Eastman on it. On the back of the keychain, it says "A 100 year start on tomorrow". The keychain is tarnished in a few places but really is in great condition. It does have some age coloring. Would like to know about how much this is worth if anyone knows because it really is charming and I haven't completely decided on selling it. A really nice piece of photographic history.
Here is a neat little key "coin" from GM. On the front it says Saint Christopher Protect Us and an emblem of Saint Christopher on it. The keys aren't regular keys, but they fold out from the round keychain if you will and then fold neatly back in again with just the tips sticking out for access. Is gold in color as background on front, and the rest of the keychain is a silver color.
