Thanks for letting me know. That was fast. Kudos to the Post Office!
Is there a difference between black opals and fire opals?
Once an idea or motif is out there, it's available to anyone at any time. I think this type of trophy was Roman in origin. Not sure about that,...
I don't think it's anything specific. It's a compilation of themed elements called a trophy. There are military trophies, love trophies, hunting...
I doubt it. The painting would have to be relined. I believe those wedges in the corners of the stretcher are to allow minor tightening of the...
Online errors are self propagating. These could be the same manufacturer, but just as easily may not be. I don't know that Godden is error free...
It looks like it has condition issues. The cost of restoring or relining just isn't worth it, not when there are a great many portraits of this...
Here's an eBay listing (current) for a print I recently purchased elsewhere. It's a very Victorian image. I was attracted to the tree and the...

I can't tell what kind of print this is, but it is an attractive image. I wouldn't expect it to make big bucks (the 19th C image probably isn't...
Pretty sure yours is a much later copy. I think 1977 is probably right. The thing that bothered me about it was that undifferentiated cloud in...
I'd like to think it's an etching, but I can't be certain.
According to this site: https://www.americanheritage.com/content/dodona-manor "After Marshall’s death in 1959, his home and property fell into...
From Wikipedia: There is evidence that a two-story house existed on the property with five-course American brickwork in the early 1800s. John...
I don't think they're just idle decorations, and I doubt they were re-purposed (unless fairly recent). Back in the day of the horse, there would...
It wouldn't surprise me at all if these were made by a local blacksmith to the specifications of the house owner of the time. He equally well...
All the above?
Hitching posts? They look like wrought iron to me. How old is the house?
