It's something I didn't think of. With the Canadian attribution, I think it's def. a possibility and unfortunately happens all too often in the folk art field.Joeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13798883246590751721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1557555707557308690.post-47456665889773132192010-02-26T09:30:41.141-08:002010-02-26T09:30:41.141-08:00It is a neat piece with great integrity, however i...It is a neat piece with great integrity, however if you do a little research the Dionne Quints they were a little "too" popular in their time and it appears that there was a little cottage industry creating folksy chachkas with their likenesses. I wish they were a little less "famous." Also they were Canadian and not to diss the Canucks, but there is a fair likelyhood that the piece may be Canadian which doesn't hold the same value in the marketplace as American folk art.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1557555707557308690.post-70994717835681911242010-02-25T18:22:03.413-08:002010-02-25T18:22:03.413-08:00No problem!
