I also have another copy whose signature I cannot read they are lovely Monk pictures. The A Humborg one I confess to messing up when trying to take the backing off as the paint is stuck to the ancient card backing; I have some paint loss. The other I havent and darent touch. I would love to undestnad more of what i have and if they are of any value at all, not that I want to sell them as i do love them. The label on the old card backing says W.Sullivan Bristol Picture framer who seems to have only worked between 1880 and 1890 so guess thats a good guide to date? Should I just love them or is there hope of discovering more?

It wasn't until I purchased a new frame that I noticed the print was right on the glass. At the bottom of the print it says: no 116 IN DISTRESS. The left hand corner has a tiny chip and all I can make out is Right 1900 and beneath that the only part of a company name I can read is & CO. New York.<br />The print is of a mother at a desk with a book and a little girl whose doll's head has fallen off.<br />If anyone has any clue as to what this is or where I might be able to find some information on this, it would be appreciated.<br />Thanks.<br />liliabug08@yahoo.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4910641775580983726.post-89663400282639442022010-01-13T13:46:17.470-05:002010-01-13T13:46:17.470-05:00Hello.

Quite a number were made in the 18th and 19th centuries, but if the glass breaks, so does the picture, so most have been destroyed over time. Just because an image is such a picture, however, does not mean it has value. It all depends on the artist, age, subject, condition, etc. Some are quite valuable and some have only decorative value.Chris Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03095758274368520536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4910641775580983726.post-57508694158557858342009-11-11T16:45:49.899-05:002009-11-11T16:45:49.899-05:00I have one of these "prints on glass". a...I have one of these "prints on glass". are they very rare? do they have any particular value?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4910641775580983726.post-24668004728813572842009-11-09T08:46:22.113-05:002009-11-09T08:46:22.113-05:00Im so glad i found this site,keep up the good work...Im so glad i found this site,keep up the good work,I read a lot of blogs on a daily basis and this is one of the best.Viagra Onlinehttp://www.rxnoprescription.ca/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4910641775580983726.post-62951777552021013512009-11-06T17:49:52.095-05:002009-11-06T17:49:52.095-05:00I don’t know If I said it already but …I’m so glad...I don’t know If I said it already but …I’m so glad I found this site…Keep up the good work I read a lot of blogs on a daily basis and for the most part, people lack substance but, I just wanted to make a quick comment to say great blog.
