<p>[QUOTE="Debora, post: 1136874, member: 1476"]Hello! That appears to be an address. Wilhelmshöher Strasse 14. There's a street by that name in Berlin but, of course, other cities might have one. Let's see if the one in Berlin is in West Germany (because if not, unlikely to be associated with your paintings)... Yep, West so possible. (In the Friedenau neighborhood to be precise.) Here's number 14 (according to the internet.) The name before the address appears to be Nicolay Seckbach. They're likely souvenir paintings from Bavaria. And vintage, rather than antique, as not 100 years old.</p><p><br /></p><p>Debora</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]211886[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Not a happy address, by way.
