I got a signed Miro print at a Church art sale for $2.00.Its value is around $500 to $1000.

In the '60s Sears hired Vincent Price to be an art expert for its stores. He selected some good contemporary art and it was reasonably affordable..I saw the Sears label on the back and took a chance. Sure enough it was original

Wow!!! Good find!!!

I love Miro. But my wife hates him, EOS. Did you ever see the LARGE Miro mural in the Cincinnati Art Museum that used to line the walls of a high class Cincy eatery?

Still has the food splatters!

An aquaintance of mine found a folio of signed Thomas Hart Benton lithos at a used book store in Cincinnati for five dollars!

Miro's my favorite abstract artist. His paintings are so cheerful, and great use of color.
