Found. A set of 70 year old Jean-Louis Prevost etchings. Pristine except for the slightest patina of age, just the barest yellow cast.
And marked down to a mere 20 dollars at a local antique mall. Perfect. Can't wait to get them framed and on the wall.

Hi! Thanks so much for the comments!
Wow, what an amazing find- congrats! Yes, three is definitely a collection, so I'm thinking with 70 you have a major collection!!
You're in SA!! I grew up in SA- went to Lee. Gotta love this blogging introductions!! It's been several years since I've been back, but there were definitely some really good antique shops there! In fact I just hung a chandelier that we got at... (dang, can't remember the name, but a really big mall off 410 close to the airport) years ago. I only had it hanging at our house in Dallas for a short time, but always loved it and never sold it. Everytime I see it I think of SA!

Lovely, I actually copied some of these for my sister when I was much younger and she framed them...I love looking at vintage art or etchings for the details are incredible.
