<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 120534, member: 37"]I am guessing these are fabric over wood since the nails and the screw-eye have to have something to go in to. I believe the wire hangers are probably the originals. This construction is consistent with the earlier dates. If they were from the 50s or later, we would probably see cardboard. That extra twisted trim is something that probably would not have been done at a later date. </p><p><br /></p><p>The style of the art is a sort of primitive Hudson River School look that was popular in the 30s or so and made for mass consumption.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
