[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 1858625, member: 85"]Do you have a good magnifying glass or loupe? Check both of them, but particularly the second one. If they are hand painted you will see brush strokes. If they were transfers there will be little dots. I'm betting the second one is hand painted and called a miniature. There may be some value if it is. The first one appears to be hand painted over a transfer. She's pretty. I think both are a little earlier than the 1930s.[/QUOTE]
