These prints were decorator items sold through Department stores during the late 1950's through early 70's. Values for them tend to be modest unless the print is a limited edition. Limited edition prints will have a number in the margin to indicate the size of the edition and the number of the print itself in that printing run, it would look something like this " 344/1000".
