Dear Andrew,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. My sincere apologies for the delay with the appraisal.
The presented object appears to be a charcoal drawing on paper with unknown measurements. The drawing depicts a Native American chief probably a Great Plain Tribes chief. The drawing is sadly illegible signed or titled. The letters are very washed or blurred and identification on the base of a photo is impossible. Sadly no additional information for an artist with this name fitting in style and motif is given by reference books and databases. This drawing was probably made in the middle of the 20th century.
Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market.
This piece is in good condition and there is no serious damage visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation would be between 20 to 40 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.
With kind regards,
George
