ayy thanks for your reply.

Well the painting is definetly on canvas and on the back of the canvas there is a signature written in pencil but it is really faded. I think it might be real but I am in no rush to get rid of it. Acually last night my father and I were thinking about taking it to and art gallery so your right I should just go to an art gallery and have it checked out.

thanks brandon

I have a frame just like that one. I think they are late 1800's to very early 1900's in age. The picture looks like some sort of print to me, rather than a painting. I could be wrong. Either way, i don't think selling this will help you very much in getting any sort of Les Paul.

aaa thats too bad but what do you think I could get for it. You see my my father ment somebody at his job and I gues he's
 a picker and buys antiques. I guess he was gonna come by tomorro and check it out. My dad just doesent wanna get rid of it and find out that its worth more money...

thanks brandon
