Description
Exceedingly rare print on canvas of the Norman Rockwell painting entitled "She Said It for a Lifetime," an illustration commissioned in 1926 by the Elgin Watch Co. (The original was sold at auction in 2018 for $250k, very close to the iconic "Girl with the Shiner" illustration, which sold in the same event.) This print is one of five made -- prior to the 2018 sale of the original -- by a descendant of the late Robert E. Dreher, who received the original painting as payment for legal services in the mid-to-late 20th century. No other prints were made from the original. Print in the frame measures about 30" x 37". This item will need to be shipped by a packing company of your choice. We maintain a list of reliable shippers, or you may choose your own.
