Esther M. Davis (American, 1893-1974), Signed Terrier Etching "Two Orphans"

Description

Lovely, Lovely etching from this American artist of a two young orphan terrier pups.  This was a limited edition of 100.  I did take the print out of the glass frame as there were so many spots that looked to be mold I had to check.  I am glad I did.  The glass in fact did have moisture and carried 95% of the spotting, but the etching itself is in relatively good condition with a few spots that need tending by a good conservator.  The mat itself looks to have some damage.   I found the back label to be very interesting and hope you read it.
The etching itself is 7" x 6" roughly 'mounted' on a 11" x 9" piece of stock.  This stock comes off the board easily.  It looks to have been taped by a former owner and roughly cut (my guess) but I do believe the matting and board are all original.
If I can help you out with any more pictures, please let me know.  The etching of the pups is adorable.
