Description
Hello, I wanted to get some more information in regards to the framed photo that I had purchased. I have the serial number and know it is from Windsor Art. I have half of the inspection number as well if that helps. The serial number is G2955 768 02 GREST 11
It's a photograph of a man who looks to be a General of some sort. Seems to me to be in pretty good condition.
Inspection number (well half of it) #39
I appreciate the help with this. I also have other photographs and paintings I would like to get information on as well as a bunch of old coins ranging from gold dollars, Penny's, Nickels, Dimes, and Quarters if interested in helping me with all of this.
Thanks
Kellie
