    My friend has sent me these pics and he thinks he's now rich...he found this in a charity shop and can't find any info so he asked me for some reason.I know less than he does but said I'd ask here xx
    These are the only pics I have

    I think it says David A Johnson...magic on the Wing? I can't find anything about the artist but I am not that good at googling

    Thank you all x x x

    ONE google result. A 2015 auction "Ojibwi Indian print of geese at flight “Magic on the wing” signed David A. Johnson;". They are not geese - they are loons. No sales prices listed. Not a name artist really.

    Think search engines take your location into account when 'deciding' which results are most likely to be relevant to you. I sometimes ask friends in other parts of the world to run the same search I have run from the US & they do sometimes come up with things that were not shown to me.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    This reminds me that a book called The Filter Bubble was recommended by one of my colleagues a couple of years ago. I need to read it!

    Here is information on what the title is referring to...

    There was (and may still be) a user on eBay named "mynameisrich."

    Use the local search engines of the country and switch off location in settings. For example if you are researching a French artist search on Google.fr and so on.
