<p>[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 2125523, member: 84"]I found this at a yard sale last week & yesterday decided to open the frame & see if it had any age - I didn't know if it was done by a child or a old master - and found it had a plastic like texture - and immediately figured it was some kind of poster.</p><p>But I was able to lift the edge - and there was another layer! When I took that off a little I couldn't tell if the image was on that or it had been done with colored pencils & it had taken the art off the paper, because while the art was on the 2nd plastic layer it is also on the paper?</p><p>Any info would be greatly appreciated - is this a poster or a work of art? Is it a keeper or should I throw it away? (I am trying to lower the amount of art to make room - I have over 200 pieces BUT I was able to pick 4 out yesterday to give up that I left at the corner & someone picked up (it's a start as I tell my girlfriend!))</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]250966[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]250967[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]250968[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]250969[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]250970[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
