A FRIEND ..., BUZZA MOTTO PICTURE, dated 1942 on reverse, reads
"Buzza Motto Copyright MCMXXV" on the bottom of the picture, "A friend
is one who takes your hand, and talks a speech you understand, He's partly
kindness, partly mirth, And faith unfaltering in your worth; He's
first to cheer you on success, And last to leave you in distress: A friend
is constant, honest, true -- In short My Friend, he's just like you!",
by Edgar Guest, good condition, blue background has a couple spots that
have gone pink (not sure what has caused that) and there is moderate wear
on the frame, reverse has recipient's and giver's name and the date

1930's
RELIGIOUS SAYING ON BLUE GLASS MIRROR, "In all thy ways acknowledge him,
and he shall direct thy paths. Prov. 3:6", wording printed in gold, handpainted
flower at the top, 7" x 5", the back is cardboard and has a cardboard
hanger built into the back, good to very good condition with some black
spots (damage to the mirroring) around the words "in" and "ways", and a
spot near the bottom edge; there is also a light clouding of the
blue under the bottom of the text, none of these defects show on my scan
(and probably would not show on a photo either because it is a dark mirror),
the one mark on the bottom left of the plaque that does show on the scan
looks like it is a scratch to the surface of the mirror, the defects are
definitely there, but it does look better than it sounds

sepia tone picture of "Whistler's Mother", metallic gold trim on print,
gold wash on frame, 7" x 11", gold wash on frame may not be original but
it has been there a very long time, "published by Morris and Benden N.Y.",
print is in near mint condition, frame is in excellent to fine condition
with slight wear on paint, slight wear on corners, and a crack in the wood
on the upper left that detracts some but is not a glaring fault, overall
the picture looks great #MO28250 $28.00

BENEDICTION
May God's Benediction
fall
Upon you through
the hours
Of life, as sunshine
falls upon
The summer's
opening flowers
But should it
be that crosses come
To bring you
naught but pain,
Remember, God
the Gardener knows
When flowers
need rain
