Alloway1913

By raerae1961, 9 October, 2011
Description

Hi!

I live in Alloway, New Jersey. A lot of history in this old town. My home and many more in my neighborhood are 100 to 200 years old. I found this portrait at a yardsale in my neighborhood and paid $1.00 for it. The black wood frame has nails around the entire frame & wire from side to side for hanging. When I removed the portrait to clean the glass I was amazed to see the date 1913 with an artists name too. The name is difficult to make out. The portrait has a mat setting around it, this is where the name & date are written. Also on the back of the frame is a piece of cardboard with someon'se name, and info: 16 x 20 black wood frame $1.75.
