I received this from my mother who inherited it from her grandmother's estate.  We cannot find a date on it but remember my great grandmother using it when we went to visit her in Cincinnati when I was about 9 or 10 years old. My great grandfather was in the ice business in the late 1800's

I bought this painting at an estate sale seven years ago for $750.00. I have been able to find some limited information about the artist, Arnold Vail (1922-1997). I know he studied at the Chicago Art Institute and taught and painted around Taos New Mexico and also in Texas. I read that he was quite a prolific painter and that his works are in the Vatican among other places.

We recently purchased a 10 piece Rockford Furniture dining room set consisting of a 54 in diameter table ( with 4 – 10 in leaves), 1 captain’s chair, 5 side chairs (all with leather seats), china cabinet with glass front and sides, sideboard with 3 drawers (top drawer is full width) and a serving table with drawer.  We think it is oak.  Photos are attached.  The previous owner, who is moving to a new, more contemporary home, purchased the set in 1980 at an estate sale.  That owner had the set for many (?) years, but was not the original owner.  There is a very faded paper label on the back of the china cabinet that cannot be read.  The box that holds the leaves has a very tattered paper label with a circular seal that says Rockford Furniture Co. Rockford, Illinois on the left and larger print to the right that says the same.  We would like to know when it was made and an appraised value.
