Fireside Reflection by W M Thompson



Once again, the thrift store has yielded a wonderful vintage art print. I found this print in an 6" X 8" size, in the original frame. This copied photo from the Internet isn't quite the same colors...in mine, the snow is a little grayer, and the light from the windows is more reddish. The print is cropped a bit in mine, but that was normal in that era. Cheap! Yes! A great buy! Sis will probably get this for her next B-day...as I have said before...she is getting a nice collection of these vintage prints...and she does not have this one..she likes landscapes best. This is a very pretty print that I have found.

Vintage 1920's W.M. Thompson Print

Friday, November 9, 2012

I have such a difficult time trying to resist a good junking expedition. At times it can be a big time waste. Really....many times the effort is fruitless. Today was a great success! Yes! This photo is of a vintage W.M. Thompson print, please disregard the reflection in the lower left side. These were printed in the 1920's and 1930's. They are found in many sizes...a print such as this can be pretty large, say 24" x 30". They were also made smaller and part of the image is cut off, often for calenders, maybe 6" x 8". I found this framed print in the small size in the vintage frame at the thrift store for $5.49. A great deal indeed! My sis collects these prints and I often shop with her for them, so I know what the price would be at an antique dealer. She must have 20 to 25 of various prints, of many sizes. I know that this is something she does not have. It will make a great gift! Yay! Love it when this happens!!
