I am seeking information on the value of an etching called The Manor. In the top left of the etching is the name Camilla Lucas , 1933, NYC. As in a question asked by Shandra K. in 2066, the artist signature in the lower right is Paul Leeotelle(sp?). The "Manor" has a burnt orange roof and it is next to a river.

Any information about Camilla Lucas or Paul Leeotelle would be most appreciated.

Here's my usual C&P on this subject:

The response from scriptor-ga is very insightful.

Basically PES was set up by Sidney Z. Lucas, hence the SZL mark. He owned a printshop in New York in the years 1940 to 1960 where He
produced a large number of prints after old etchings.
Generally, prints by Mr. Lucas seem not to reach very high prices.
At the end of the day they look nice, but that's about it.
Most of what is talked about them is from people "boiler rooming" the price on the supposed French history.

I hope this helps.
