eastcoast 4,115 Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 I'd been looking for a mirror for ages just to put on the wall. Seen this for sale and it looked familiar but couldn't mind the artist. Did a little search and turned out he designed some of Thin Lizzy's album covers, that's why it seemed familiar. He also did the iconic Che Guevara poster after meeting the bloke when he was in Ireland researching family history. 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I like it so was a nice find to me, but it is the one in the link that you shared. Probably overpriced, I ain't no Drew Pritchard. Does seem like a genuine 70's not a modern reproduction though. The seller had a sale on last week. Edited November 14, 2023 by eastcoast 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tatsblisters 9,522 Posted November 23, 2023 Report Share Posted November 23, 2023 Anyone know if these are of any value found a small jar full of various coins when we cleared the mother in law's house out when she passed away. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DIDO.1 22,638 Posted November 23, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2023 No I wouldn't say they were worth anything at all. I don't actually know what the medal is but the coin's are only worth a couple of pounds 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

eastcoast 4,115 Posted January 9 Report Share Posted January 9 Found in my parent's loft during the final check before handing over the keys. I had hoped it was a 19thC vampire hunter's kit but no wooden stakes or silver bullets. A DIY Last Sacrament kit. No idea it was there or where it came from. On temporary display to freak out a friend of mine who does not like the Sacred Heart picture that also came from my old family home. I'm going to tell her I've become a born again Catholic. The Sacred Heart print is staying though. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

eastcoast 4,115 Posted January 28 Report Share Posted January 28 An old friend is being forced to "down size", his ex getting his house. He asked if I wanted any of his prints. He's only keeping his originals or the rarer signed prints. I like these 3. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
