Being that my son is on a sleep over, I am doing some housecleaning that I can't do when he's around. An old artist friend of ours gave him a old blotter, the kind that you put on a desk and stick in a huge calender. I has pieces of foto matting board stuck in it. Just as I am about to throw this away, I see a man's head sticking out from the bottom of the pile of mat boards. It's a norman rockwell litho of Triple self portrait. It has a date on it of 1972 curtis publishing. I have never seen a lithograph like this. Aren't they usually made of paper? This one is cloth like. Should I dump it?

I had a rule (One of many)
"Unknown item; If it is easy to ship, list it"
I have sold many things I knew nothing about some were surprises!

Do you have a picture you can post?
They say your memory's the second thing to go, I just can't remember what the first thing is.

It measures 13" by 16" This is a quick foto. It's kind of big so I had to stand on a chair over the table and take the foto.

It probably won't go for a lot, but I agree, if it's easy to ship, why not try it? I've sold some Rockwell prints and also an enormous book with all his Saturday Evening Post covers and didn't get much for that, either. Good luck!
