[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 4506316, member: 84"]Went back to a local thrift store today where I'm allowed to look in the back before opening/while they unload donation trucks - and saw something familiar. A look at the unusual signature & I realized I had another Eyvind Earle limited edition lithograph! The only problem is this one doesn't have a catalogue number or a name (and I don't know how to do a reverse image search on this computer) - can anyone tell me the name of this piece? 2nd piece I found was this Morris Louis / Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden exhibition poster. Googling the name & title I found a couple of similar posters - but none exactly like mine with the name on the left of the art & the name of the Hirshhorn Garden on the right. Examining it closer I found the disclosure? in the bottom right that said this is a 1987 Smithsonian Museum Shop (Washington, DC) piece by Miles, Fridberg, Molinaroli, Inc.? Searching them I found that they designed the Smithsonian museum - is that right? and adding Morris Louis / Hirshhorn garden poster I found this - they are apparently a large collector of Morris Louis & other examples of Color Field paintings? [URL='https://hirshhorn.si.edu/explore/morris-louis/']Morris Louis - Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden | Smithsonian (si.edu)[/URL] Is this poster special or was it as it appears - just a souvenir that apparently no one bought or kept (I can't find another example)? Do I have something special or ... Thanks for any help!
