I got this from my father. My dad was given this by my grandmother. My grandmother's father was an antique dealer back in the 1930's and this was one of the pieces handed down to me.

Hello Kim,
Thank you for your appraisal inquiry with Mearto. The item presented appears to be a steel engraving depicting a portrait of George Washington. The image was published by E.M. (or E.H.) Bauer, New York, as indicated by the text below the image. The portrait is based on a drawing by Benjamin Trott (1770 - 1843) created circa 1821.
The estimate provided is based on recent auction estimates and results of comparable engravings of portraits of Washington, dating to the late 19th century to the mid 20th century. The estimate is contingent on a full condition report. Please note asking or dealer prices may vary. Thank you and please take care.
Hello Kim,
Unfortunately, I do not believe an auction house or dealer would take the print on due to value. However, I'd encourage you to locate local consignment shops for help or you may consider posting the print on eBay or the like.
Thank you for your response. I live in Northern California and would like to find a dealer who might be interested in buying this, can you recommend places near me?
