Iowa JohnBirchSociety - Aug. 5
Nora Debolt's work seems to have been picked up by a major print supplier for the chain department stores some 30 - 40 years ago.
The only actual original painting of hers I have seen online, not a print, went for $3,500.
Prints around $140, and that was poorly framed.

Hi Philip,
Thank you so much for sending the photos! You have a print from Nora's Garden Patio series, they are quite rare and I am convinced there will not ever be another printing from the Kaplan co. They are more prevalent on the east coast, and I can pretty much guarantee that hardly anyone in the west actually owns one. This print could easily sell on ebay for 100. or more depending on the collector. I hope this helps you.
I should be very happy to have that print..I think I would be the only one on the west coast that did...
Take care, and thanks!
Susan

Dear Susan,
Thank you so much for your quick reply. I feel honored to own this print especially since I basically rescued it from the recycle bin.
Please let me know if you're ever interested in a purchase and if not I'll gladly keep it with my household goods throughout my worldly travels.
Also, I still can't tell if it's an original unless I take it out of the frame?
Again, many thanks and best wishes on your future endeavours.
Good Day,
Philip
