Thank you for taking the time to write all of this. I sincerely appreciate it. Last night I went to bed feeling like I was spinning my wheels....
That's beautiful and ... Italian? I feel like this is comparing apples to oranges. Granted, the artist that did my (this smaller one) shadow box...
Thanks for the link. Again, it's a fabric matting. Compares with the one on the left. As is with all the vintage ones, the "coral" is too pink...
Aaroncab, I saw that example. Notice it has a felt back - not a rosewood back like mine. I've searched eBay until I'm blue in the face. I've...
Thank you, Debora! Are you talking about comparable to mine or the one on the left? Do you have a link? I'd like to know what the back looks...
Love the phone! I have my grandmother's faux antique phone from the late 1960's/early 1970's. I remember her getting it to replace her real...

Bwahaha! Edited: That was a friendly laugh, btw. I put a smiley face but I just noticed it didn't appear. :)...

Okay, I'm going to go ahead and say it because one of these days I have to be right. :cool:Here goes: I think it's old. It's signed by the...
I think you're right! Thanks!
YOU SAID IT! Wait until you see what I'm posting next! You can help me out with that one, too! :eek::D
I see what y'all are saying about the dots now. I see that it was outlined in gold (it looks gold shiny through the loupe) before being painted....
Guys, I know I have much to learn but I have an old pre-printed dot one to compare it with. With the loupe, they look totally different. I see...
