I love vintage art. I'm kind of a decorating fanatic (I admit it, so it's not so bad, right?), so I mix paintings and prints from Etsy with vintage pieces to add character to the mix. I'm currently obsessed with creating a wall of vintage portraits, be it painting, cabinet photography or prints. I've put together a collection of vintage original art, ephemeral prints and folk art for your perusal.

 

 

Amazing Vintage Folk Art Cigarette Wrapper Checkerboard Picture Frame. Prison Art. Silver and White.

Wow! Some prisoner of long ago used his smoking habit to create a piece of beauty. From souvenirsouvenir, $40.
