    Any Info? I saved this from a defunct steel mill here in Pittsburgh. It was high up on a wall. That is all I really know.

    Maybe I'm crazy for price or way too low. I have no idea.

    The firstdibs link price seems utterly mad to me. The OP's example is in much better condition, but I'd not see it as more than the low hundreds of dollars,(if that) not the low thousands as the vendor seems to think.

    Agree with AF, think it would be reasonable to ask $200-300. And get a sale sooner or later. Btw this item on the. 1stD site is listed as 15x15 in. Maybe op's is same?

    It is the same, however I don't believe that the 1stdibs site has the history correct, nor do I think it is that old. thanks so far for all the comments/info

    Seeing as how you're new here RPP....let me explain.
    Mr. Picklepuss joined up here in April.....posted this in April...& hasn't been back since !!!
    At the top right of your home page you have an INBOX where you can start a conversation with Pickle-dude & hope he gets a notice of it......otherwise ...he's in the wind !

    Good luck !
