    Inherited paintings and need to determining value
    I just received 84 paintings and they all are called "Genuine Etching" original artist proof. They are all old with some being from France, Germany & England. What does this type mean and what is the best way to determine value and the possible selling? Thanks Dave

    If they are signed and numbered prints, then yes, they may be valuable. Have them appraised.

    Old etchings & lithographs especially artists proofs could be worth a lot of money. I agree with "tickle" get them appraised, find a fine art dealer... Good luck
