    My grandmother passed away in 1999 any my father inherited her estate. Today we were going through some of her items that we found in our garage and found a canister. Inside it were 11 lithographs. Here are 3.

    Does anyone know the artist/artists?

    Nope. Good luck. My first impulse was that they have a William Blake feel--not actually looking like Blake, but they remind me of Blake. But especially the one on the right reminds me of an illustration from the 1979 World Book Encyclopedia yearbook. I'm guessing they are late '60s/early '70s US graphic art. But that is about as much as I'd guess and I certainly wouldn't put any money on it.

    Yes, I forgot to mention that the canister came from the people at Encyclopedia Britannica. My google-fu isn't coming up with anything though.
