Hello,

My girlfriend found an interesting poster that she picked up and brought home and I would like to ask to see if it has any value, besides the fact that she loves it, or history.

She is not trying to sell it.

I have artist name, it is "signed" and dated as part of the print but not a real signature. There is no series number.

It is framed and looks like something you may have gotten at a mall boutique. Thank you.

Thank you ErocAfellar!

Artist: Pat Singer
Title: Times Square (?)
Date: 1989 (though I am not sure that means anything)
Size: 36ish by 24ish

It looks like this in a very similar metallic frame:

Looks like it is in the original frame and thus has been stored flay. No real fading or if there is it is very consistent.

Edit to add date and size.

Thank you. Those are smaller at 8x10 and 11x14 and the one she picked up is 36ish by 24ish.

I told the misses that this probably was not worth anything though.

yeah, if the 11x14 are selling for 19.99, he's probably been printing them for years at different sizes. don't think it's anything unique or HTF.

pretty cool travel/tourism poster though

:cheers:

Might be worth a couple bucks, this fella is listing his 24x36 for $250 despite his copy being massively drymounted up.
