Quality ca. 1902 Red Snapper print framed

Post by Mike N »

I picked up this quality ca.1902 Denton print of a Red Snapper on Angling Marketplace for a surprisingly low bid of $10. It measured slightly over 9”x12.” There were several other nice prints offered.

I then bought this in-stock frame at Hobby Lobby for $34, but because I asked the framing clerk to mount it, he trimmed it for $1 and said it now was a “custom” frame job at 50% off, or $17 (see invoice below). So, all in for about $30 to add to the cabin wall.

I really enjoy shopping at Hobby Lobby. They seem to have interesting stuff, kind of like that frame, not necessarily pretty but unique and apropos . 8)
Love those Open Face Spinning Reels! (Especially ABU & ABU/Zebco)

Nice pic, Mike! Just a note to apologize to the membership for my shoot-from-the-hip comment of yesterday. It should never have been put on this forum .

Those Denton lithographs are great. I totally missed that one on Angers Marketplace. Nice find and nice job on the frame!

Eric, three of the 6 listed Dentons did not sell, so perhaps they will be re-listed.

I listed the 6 Denton prints and Mike is correct, 3 did not sell. If anyone is interested in any of the 3 which did not sell (pictured in Mike's post) contact me. The price of any one or more of the prints is $10 each + $10 shipping for 1, 2, or 3.
By the way Mike, you got that Red Snapper for a great price.
