Dear Ruth
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
The presented object appears to be a drypoint etching on paper with unknown measurements. The print depicts a landscape and has the title "Indian Summer. This print was made and hand-signed in pencil by the artist Gene KLOSS (1903-1996). Probably this print has the measurements 7 3/4 x 10 7/8 in and was made in 1943.
Works by this artist 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 500 to 1.000 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,
Georg
