Another antique find: Two dogs in a trunk!

March 16, 2012 by Erin Heaton

I’ve got more than half a dozen projects in various states of finish, but none of them done enough to share today. So I’ll leave you this Friday with another recent antique find:

an old 8×10 photograph of two dogs in the trunk of a car (a.k.a. pretty much the greatest thing ever).

I found it at an antique mall I don’t go to very often. My brother was with me and he bought it for me as a birthday gift. I don’t think he liked it as much as I do, but he still bought it for me anyway. (Thanks, Adam!)

It’s signed on the back, but I’m sure it’s just the work of an amateur. I already painted the frame black (was a honey oak), and I can’t wait to find a place for it.
