Found "felt painting" at garage sale. Much detail; not like velvet paintings.?

On beige felt. Three men: r.r. guy (Otto) and two others playing checkers by a black pot-bellied stove. One cat, as well as details of store%26#039;s supplies (spices, fabrics, brooms, fruits, pickle barrels, coffee, tea, oil lamps, etc. The men%26#039;s names are Otto, Joe, %26amp; Ray (on hats %26amp; clothes). Floor is wooden %26amp; there%26#039;s a door leading to another room on the left. Details even include shadows of objects %26amp; metallic paint for metal teapots. Colors: browns, browinsh-red, blues %26amp; greens. Not real bright. There%26#039;s a square, wooden column on left. Size: about 3 1/2%26#039; by 2 1/2%26#039;. Simple wooden frame. One man is smoking a pipe %26amp; wearing work boots like my granddad%26#039;s (brown with a hoop to help pull them on) %26amp; one wears glasses. Medium includes paint, felt pen, %26amp; pencil. Five broomheads are in the forefront of the picture. A gas or kerosene lamp hangs over Otto%26#039;s head. May be like %26quot;paint by numbers%26quot; mentioned before, but seems less %26quot;guided%26quot; than those. Must%26#039;ve taken long time to do.

Found %26quot;felt painting%26quot; at garage sale. Much detail; not like velvet paintings.?
Sounds nice....LOL.....did you say %26#039;garage sale%26#039; or %26#039;garbage sale%26#039;?
Reply:As of this date I do not know of many valuable painting done on felt. But you could take a picture and put it on ebay. Maybe you would find out about it and make a little money too!
