    query on F.W Frohawk drawings
    hi I have recently come across 3 pieces of FW Frohawks drawings. I was wondering if anyone had any idea on the value, if any, of these pieces. Or any information at all would be great. Thanks

    Hi
    If you Google his name you will readily see sites selling modern prints of his drawings under 20 USD. Lithographs removed from his old books sell for 50 USD.

    I found some auction results for original watercolors in the 100 - 800 GBP range back before 2000. Since, his auction result is mostly unsold. He sold for about 300 USD back around 2004. I would think he'd sell best in his own country- England.

    Since one of the images you posted is cut through the lettering, I wonder if your drawings are original or reproductions...

    I don't see evidence of a strong market but there's likely a collector waiting out there for originals.

    thank you for answering, the lettering is cut through due to my wonderful photography haha. They are all originals as you can see the coloured pencil markings on the paper. I will have a look at some sites, it is just a long process and was hoping there was a shortcut. I am not interested in selling them as I will be keeping them for my kids. I am not sure if this is a good idea or not but I want my kids to have something in the future that might be of some value :)
