<p>[QUOTE="Lithographer, post: 8351773, member: 13308"]I picked these up at a thrift shop yesterday. I believe they are by the Laguna CA artist, Alida Van Gores. She was also an author and enjoyed deep sea fishing. There is a good article about her from the LA Times in 1988. (Could someone help post a link?) I thought I would post because the story of the artist seemed unique and interesting. I was also wondering if anyone has ever tried to remove the spotting from those fabric covered liners on the frames? Maybe some kind of fabric spot remover or paint over them with something? I'm working with thin margins these days and they are going to auction, so I don't want to replace them. Thanks in advance for any tips.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]426963[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]426964[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]426965[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]426966[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]426967[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]426968[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
