Lousy phone pics, sorry.

I believe this image was discussed some years ago. Couldn't find it.

The cardboard frame is from another photo, "Kiddieland Studios". Not sure what the thinking here was.

Photo; the silvering suggest, at least the photo could be genuine. Then the white border around the photo itself confounds me. Especially where the "J" is partially cut off. Is it real, or...?

I cannot speak to the authenticity but it is certainly beautiful!

There were a bunch of fakes made last year or possibly the year before.. this looks like one of them.

Silvering will show up on a copy if the original it was made from had it so dont let that fool you. It would be hard to tell unless you had it in person.
