I found this in an attick of a house. It appears to have never been out of the shipping wrapper that I took it out of. It was sent from New York with a 5 cent stamp. I did not see a post mark but I believe it is from 1920 based on what I saw on the text of the canvas. I am hoping someone can give me an idea as to its value.

Well I'd say from all the PM's you got your answer. Rare, awesome shape, and killer graphics. Frame it and ENJOY it! You'll not come across another like that anytime soon.

He didnt ask for pm's or emails? He asked for an honest value! I would think professionally framed it would be worth 500-1000 bucks??? Ive never seen another...
