Cowboy Allie Cootz from Duane Bryers Bubkhouse Boys. Pencil signed by the artist. Dated 1973. Nice older frame. Artist Bio attached on back. Can’t find any comps for this particular cowboy. Duane Bryers is also the creator of the wonderful Hilda character.
Terceira Azores whale tooth, depicting windmill, fisherman and donkey, sun and clouds, small boat and house. Looks like a tourist piece. There is a signature in the bottom corner. Did needle test, not epoxy or plastic, definitely a genuine tooth.
I thought I would streamline this process. we have 2 sets of Blue Wine glasses with matching carafes and 1 set of Red wine glasses with matching carafe. The first Blue Glass wine set consists of 4 glasses and 1 wine carafe with topper. There are no distinguishing marks indicating country of origin or maker. The Carafe with topper is 15" tall. The cups are 5.5" tall. This set is decorated in in ornate golden band around both the carafe and cups. The topper of the carafe also has this gold on it. The second Blue Glass set has a carafe that is 10" tall with the topper, 6 cups that are 3.25" tall. They appear to be hand painted and also have a golden band around them On the Carafe, there is a sticker "made in Italy" The Red Glass set is the most ornate and in the best condition of the 3 sets. The carafe is 15" tall with topper and 6 cups that are 5.25" tall. There is gold covering most of the glasses. No markings about country of origin or the maker.

We got these lamps from a relative that passed away. Could you please give me some more detail about it and what they’re worth? They’re both in great working condition and have a three-way light. Thank you in advance.
Harold Newtown is often known as "the original Highwayman". I've been able to read and learn a lot about this incredible artist and even saw that some of his paintings are a part of the Smithsonian's permanent collection, however I can't find too many of his pieces online for sale to really gather how much this may be worth. It's a rather large painting that was purchased directly from Harold while he was traveling selling his work. It has had one owner prior to coming into my possession and is still in the original frame it was purchased in.
I brought it in to a local art studio in the small town I live in and the owner told me it was worth at least $2,500 and he'd buy it from me right then and there - I thanked him and kindly declined as I feel honored to have come into possession of this painting but also felt that his eagerness to sell it to me for $2,500 was a sign that it was likely worth much more.
