Oakville, Mo.Measures approximately 6” x 8”.This is a very attractive example with strong reverse-painted silhouette work and excellent depth in the scene. The campfire, horses, trees, and mountain background give it a great old western look, while the Oakville grocery advertising adds nice local-history appeal.The main image presents well. There is some paint loss/chipping along portions of the outer edges of the glass, visible in the photos, but it does not appear to materially affect the central artwork or advertising image.Original gold-tone frame shows expected age-related wear and patina.A great piece for collectors of Oakville Missouri memorabilia, vintage grocery advertising, reverse-painted glass, western décor, cowboy/horse imagery, and early telephone-exchange advertising.Please review all photos carefully for exact condition.
