Tuesday, 11 October 2005 Hello sir, my name is Jason and I was hoping that you could help me. I have just aquired a S. Ishida watercolor either painting or print. What I do know from internet searching, is that I believe that it was framed between 1913 and 1932. I believe this because of the original seal on the reverse stating that it was framed by "Henry Schultheis paintings and prints inc." From what I have read Henry began to take lead of the company sometime after 1913 up until 1932 when his son took the business over. I do know that this company framed many original paintings as well as recreated many high quality prints. I was hoping that you could tell me when the original was created, if this is not it. And what this old print might be worth. One very interesting that I observed about the S. Ishida painting that you have on your website and mine,is that they both appear to both be of the same exact area on the lake. Except your picture is viewed in the spring and from a couple hundred feet or so back from where mine was created. You can see in the distance of yours,all of the same huts, water and even sticks in the water as mine, only further away. Well that you very much for your time. Anything you could tell me would be appreciated. Attached are some pictures of my copy. Thank you Jason
