Old Architectural Prints on EBAY

architect21

Has any one bought any Old Architectural Prints on EBAY?
Pre 1900 Architecture prints I just found them. They look cool for my den. But are they real? They look real.

Start watching antiques roadshow, maybe you'll pick up some tips on how to spot an original print. And keep your eye out for Metropolis movie posters. If you find an original, it could be the most valuable movie poster to exist - according to the antiques road show. I love that show.

All the pre-1900 architectural prints I've bought and sold on eBay are real.

There are around 500 prints in my basement now that I keep on thinking I'll offer some day at eBay.

That, or I'll color some of them, or collage some of them, or wallpaper my bathroom with some of them.

If you're at all addicted, you might as well be extreme about it too.

nice 9/10 - who have you found are the best arch. material vendors on e-bay, Rita? Besides Tekton7777, I've had trouble finding people with good stuff. And sorry, I'll have to pass on the Sammlung.

I really couldn't say. I generally search "architecture" under category books every so often, and read all the titles available. A lot of it is catch as catch can as far as I'm concerned.

an architect friend of mine saw a distant relative of her husband's on antiques roadshow with a bunch of FLW stuff. that'd be so weird.
this woman's great aunt (?) had a FLW house built. Then I saw the episode too out of chance, I never watch antiques roadshow!

If you ever work for a STAR-Rqtect could you save all prints they throw away and sell them on Ebay someday without breaking any laws?
One man's trash is another treassure.
