Hello, stopped at a religious thrift store in Michigan. Just before we left, we saw a big roll of old looking paper. With the paper being brittle, we didn't want to unroll it too much, but realized they were old colored lithos well worth the $40 they were asking. After setting the whole thing under a stack of books to unroll, the time finally came to see what was inside. They're the largest lithos I've seen from that period (1.5'x2.5'), showing the height of Victorian fashion. Very sharp detail and colors and huge size makes it collectable. There's only 2 others for sale now, both in the hundreds of dollars. Granted, some of mine show smoke damage and chipping, the majority of them will make great frames. I'm planning on a matching set of frames for all of them. Below are some of my favorites

Those are awesome. I've never seen anything like them. I like the first one where the girl is riding an ostrich. I would love to put some stuff framed in my room like that. Only problem is finding room in here! Awesome score!

Really cool save. I am sure they will look great framed. I bet a clothing store would love to have them.

The chipping give them more of an aged look. Goes along with the theme of the lithos.
