Matted and framed Lee Marmon photos. Purchased by Dale directly from Lee on a visit to one of his awesome Fourth of July fireworks shows near the Laguna Pueblo, ca. 1975? They were purchased already matted and framed. Lee signed these on each mat. Subjects from top to bottom are Laguna Bruce Riley, Laguna Village Elder Jose Sanshu, and Marmon's "signature" photo, White Man's Moccasins, Laguna Old Jeff Sousea.
Photo size ~10" x 13", frame size 16" x 20"
Dear Dale and Laney,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. My sincere apologies for the delay with the appraisal.
The presented object appears to be three photographs with 13 x 10
inches measurements. The titles are: Laguna Bruce Riley, Laguna Village Elder Jose Sanshu, and Marmon's "signature" photo, White Man's Moccasins, Laguna Old Jeff Sousea. All artworks were made by Lee Marmon (1925-2021).
Comparable objects were recently rarely offered and sold on the international auction market.
This piece is in good condition and no severe damage is visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation would be between 100 to 200 USD each.
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,
Gregory
(Short of taking the frame and glass off, which I would not like to do.)
New images added. Pretty dark, to avoid reflections. Please advise if you need something better, and how I could accomplish that.
