opened this up for pictures. The Certificate

in 1969, this heliogravure is after the
original gouache done in 1968-69 The
heliogravure is in very nice condition
overall. Vivid coloring, no stains, holes or
visible damage. The gold mat shows signs of
discoloration on the bottom. The front mat has
discolored and shows some signs of age.

condition however its dated. I would recommend
the lithograph be professionally rematted and
reframed. Its an amazing piece of art that
would be a stunning addition to any
mid-century modern decor or Salvador Dali
collection.

Art Deco NICOL Etching LADY Icart
Boudoir Style FramedFresh
from an estate attic. Antique framed aquatint
etching. Signed in pencil "Nicol". Oval
etching of pretty young lady gathering flowers
in her basket, with plate mark around the
edge. Frame measures 17-3/4" x 11-3/4".
10-1/2" x 8" on the oval etching area. There
does not appear to be any blind stamp, or
watermark, but I have not opened this up to
see it first hand. The paper appears to be
wove with lite texture. There does not appear
to be any tears or holes and the coloring is
still quite vivid and bright and does not
appear to have been subjected to sunlight when
displayed. There is no foxing. There is some
stains on the border and some on her dress
area. I've shown several pictures so you can
see the quality and its condition. I've
cleaned the front glass, but it really needs
to be opened up and cleaned and have the old
dingy cardboard backing replaced. I'll leave
that to you.
Authentic 1920's
artist proof etching by the renown listed artist
Bert Cobb. Title: Luchs, Portrait of a German
Sheperd. Size: 14-1/2" x 11-1/2". Pencil signed
by the artist on the bottom right, title is
bottom left, and inscribed signature on the
etching below the dogs neck. Excluded from the
numbering as it was an A.P. This wonderful work
of art is original as exhibited, matted, framed,
behind glass, paper backing sealed still with
Gallery label on back. The work was offered for
exhibition by Bert Cobb at the C. W. Kraushaar
Art Galleries in the early 1930's. Documentation
label on the back reads: from: C.W. Kraushaar
Art Galleries, 680 Fifth Avenue, between 4th and
5th Streets, NEW YORK, Established in 1885,
"LUCHS", A.P. ETCHING by BERT COBB. This artist
proof was printed especially for Bert Cobb and
was part of his personal collection. It was one
of the first printings pulled off of the fresh
"stone" and given to the artist for him to
determine the plate finished and ready for
production. It would have been one the sharpest
and most vivid of any that was produced. The
artwork and frame is in very nice condition
still overall, with no signs of abuse (tears,
stains, holes). There is a small spot by the
dog's ear and two more (lighter) lines on the
background that appear to be a slight scuff to
the paper? On the whole the artwork and matt
have a aged (yellowed ) appearance. The overall
size of the frame is 15" x 17-1/2". There is
some lite scratches to the glass from storage.
Original A.P. etchings by Bert Cobb are not
offered often. Past gallery offerings and
quality auction house results show values of his
following run etchings (not artists proofs)
valued at $800. to $1400. No results were found
for A.P.'s.
This is a beautiful old
lithograph of a lone girl in a boat. All
original, matted behind glass, in its original
frame. There in no signature viewable but
maybe one under the matting? The print is in
excellant condtiion with no holes, stains or
visible tears. Its coloring if vivid and
unfaded. Produced in the late 1800's and is an
authentic print. It measures 19-1/4" x 12"
overall on the frame. Visible print size is
approx 14" x 7-1/2". The gilted wood frame has
some rubs and flakes and one of the ornate
golden metal clasps on the corner has broken
through in the cener and is just laying in
place. The paper backing is long gone. Wire
hanger still attached. Take a look. It is a
fine quality lithograph and with some
restoration or replacement of the frame it
would be a lovely addition to any collection.
