Copper pictures

[iceman0xh]

My grandma gave me two of these copper pictures. They are 2 ft by 2ft and are unsigned. My dad remembers these being in the house in the 50s. Looking for information on the artist and value

I remember doing this type of copper pictures in school. I would guess these were home made or a school class project. As for value I would check ebay and see what similiar ones are selling for.

 

[woof!]

Embossed copper was a popular hobby art form back in the 50's, like Cariboo says even kids did it. However as with any art form, there are a few pieces of exceptional art by known artists that have collectible value. So oughta have it looked at by someone who knows this kind of art before garage saleing it.
