re: Your best Goodwill finds.

This is one of my best finds. It's a numbered print from Raoul Dufy. It's from his horse racing collection. I saw one on EBay awhile back and the guy was asking $750, but his wasn't numbered. He didn't know anything about it really, nor do I. I could only find that the original is in some museum. Paid $10. There is framing receipt taped on the back from the framing company. Somebody paid $60 to frame it back in the day.
The original is in the Havard Art Museum in Cambridge.

I don't look at the artwork too much nowadays. I was in Austin a couple years ago and there was an antique portrait of a woman there, that was an original oil painting on canvas that looked like it was 100+ years old. I couldn't find any info on my phone about the artist, so I didn't buy it. But it was beautiful. Looked like it belonged in a museum. Probably should have paid the $15 for it anyway.
