Tom Ryan (Estate Sale)

[Beans]

Went to an estate sale- no coins- however did pickup this print by Tom Ryan. I researched and now know who Tom Ryan is, but could not find this type of print. It is shiny, silver border and color. Any help will be appreciated.

The painting Split Decision - Tom Ryan was inspired to paint this art work when he saw some cowboys pushing some cows into a corral. One of the calves cut back, and with an instantaneous reaction, one of the hands threw a quick loop down to his left side and heeled the calf promptly.

I saw your prints on eBay fro 10-12 each plus shipping . Who was the other artist on the native American prints? They are a numbered series so that's a good thing.

Right now I only have one Tom Ryan print on ebay, the first one on this message. I kind of like them and thinking more about keeping the them.
I do believe and I can kick my behind for not getting it, was one done by Nevaquaya's son which commands a better price. Do not know the others, to many people grabbing, it was kind of like tossing a dead fish in a pool of piranha. Had one lady demand that the Nevaquay print was hers and demanded I give it to her. I was nice about it and the Estate sales lady let me keep it.

I was just at a yard sale last saturday and I walk up to the table where i saw some jewelry. A guy was already going thru the small bowl. I asked him if they were his and he said yes so I didn't stick my fingers in the bowl but I did stay close by and looked at some other scattered jewelry. He bought most of what was in the bowl. After he left to pay I looked thru what was left and found three 925 bracelets + I picked up three more pieces of jewelry. I offered $1 for all the lady didn't like my offer so I asked if I could put back "these three" and then she like my offer.

I then went back to my car and the first jewelry guy was just getting in his car. We had a nice 15 min conversation. He does basically what I do, but he didn't have a magnifying glass and he let me look at what he bought. Nothing was marked so I am sure I got the better deal. I suggested he get a "glass"

I was at another sale several weeks ago and this guy brought out some gold and as I was testing them two different people started to pick them up. and this was after they watched me test and put them in their own little pile. I actually had to grab their hand and force them to put them back. (they would not have understood english)
