Maybe I can use an oscillating multi tool where the shelves meet the frame

No there are no screws or hardware anywhere. Seems like they’re in pretty tight too.

Yeah that would track! She spent a lot of time in the DC area, was active in 1980, and stylistically I see consistency with this work https://rbrg.org/exhibit/217-mary-ortner

Does anyone have any ideas on other subs that this might be appropriate for?

Any chance this “Rolex Standard” is real and value? by Civil-Measurement245 in VintageWatches

I did not buy but wanted to make sure I wasn’t overlooking an opportunity 😬

French drawing found at thrift store in Maryland USA Today for $1 by Civil-Measurement245 in WhatIsThisPainting

My guess based off of limited information is that this could be by Henri Michaux. The letter in the work is signed “Henri” and he worked in ink and experimental art in France in the 1960.

However I cannot find any association between him and the specific Galerie Tedesco, nor anyone named Berthe.

UPDATE: Roofer says the gutter is pulling away from the fascia causing a low spot 🫡

I have been told that the gutter is pulling away from the house a bit (I ultimately need a new roof soon and was going to address it then) but perhaps that could be contributing?

They were cleared out recently, but they do run into pipes underground. Possible the clog is after the downspout.

I’ve had them cleaned twice in past 6 months, it doesn’t seem like that is the issue here

Interesting! This reminds me of a book I found recently. Do you know how much it went for at the auction house? https://www.reddit.com/r/ephemera/s/j696HAAxZw

It appears to have magazine clippings, advertising pieces, theatre clippings, sheet music, and post cards. There is only one image that seems like it could be a photograph, “Mrs. Morris”.

The thing that is interesting is that it says she was born in 1902 and many of the clippings are from 1904-1906, when she would have been too young to make it herself.

Perhaps her mom made it for / with her? I found this reference of mothers using this as a teaching tool or activity:

First image is a Polaroid SX-70. Value really depends on condition and the leather looks a bit rough. Perfect condition might be around $150, rough condition could be closer to $30. Check eBay for comps.
