<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bear Mom, post: 1606333, member: 12964&quot;]My grandmother owned an antique shop just south of Dallas in the 1950’s. In the mid 1950’s she purchased this portrait from a Czech family in Ennis, TX. The frame is the original though it looks like she added a support piece on the back so she could hang it. This hung on the wall of my parent’s home for years but was just removed from storage after 10 years or more so we can get more info about it.</p><p><br /></p><p>It was painted on blue and white striped mattress ticking which I have found is not a rare thing.</p><p><br /></p><p>There is no signature though there maybe a shadow of one. The pics show measurements and close ups.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would appreciate any assistance you can provide. My dad intends on getting an official appraisal if it has potential value.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]232483[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232484[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232485[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232486[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232487[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232488[/ATTACH] </p><p>This is at the bottom right hand of the painting.&nbsp; It almost looks like there was a signature at one time. </p><p><br /></p><p>Not sure why the pics started posting on their side.&nbsp; Sorry!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]232489[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232490[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]232491[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
