Tom BoblittI know the guy in Lexington, KY who commissioned the paintings and made the prints. He has recently made postcards of them that are being sold at the hall of fame............think there were 10-12 paintings of which 8 were seleted to be made into the 9x12 or so prints in two sets of 4 prints. They are beautiful prints and I have all 8 framed (4 to a frame) hanging in my basement. The original oil paintings and about 5000 or so of the leftover stock were sold in a Mastronet auction 5-6 years ago I believe. I don't know what the edition size was but it was well into the thousands. They were colorized versions of N173's.
The one in question appears to have been aged artificially and then framed and sold. I wouldn't be surprised if the seller was duped on them but it's conservatively worth about $8.00-$10.00. I saw the sets of (4) prints selling for about $20 each (for 4 prints) over last few years.
