I am 85 years old and downsizing some of my collectibles. On our travels I purchased this at festival in Knowlesville NY over 40 years ago. The slate came from a One Room Antique Schoolhouse and this clever man painted all kinds beautiful country scenes on them and sold at his booth. It was very expensive at the time, but I had to have it. It is OOAK and is an country style image of the Statue of Liberty hold an American flag. Above is written Land I Love, it is signed by the artist. The back of the plate shows the beautiful piece of slate and label says taken from one room schoolhouse in Knowlesville NY.
The size is 18 x 9.5 inches and would look beautiful with primitive/country/farmhouse decor. My house is all antiques.
If you have any questions, please contact me before bidding. Thank you.
