Description My hand-painted tole tray has a sticker that reads: NASHCO PRODUCTS, NEW YORK. It is black with a blue, green, and gold fruit picture painted on it. The signature below the picture is Anatole. It is actually a rectangular, elongated octagon and the border is a lattice style with gold painted trim. Can you give me an idea of what it is worth please. It hung on a wall for many years and the condition is reasonable, but not pristine. Thank you.
