* Important:  I had originally listed this as a lithograph.  It was disclosed to me earlier today that an exact work (different number, #143 of 200) was sold through Outer Cape Auctions in January 1, 2005 (Lot 104) with the title "Oyster Houses, Cape Cod" and the medium was a wood engraving.  The party disclosing this to me also educated me on Claire Leighton and that most of the work produced by this artist was usually a wood block or something similar.

Outer Cape Auctions, being a small auction house, usually does not remove items from there framing.  Most of the time, we go by what the consignor tells us or what we can visually see.  I was wrong in assuming, due to the number of prints made (200), that it was a lithograph.

Even I can and have been wrong in the past.  Suffice it to say, I will go with the additional information furnished to me that the above work being offered on Wednesday is a wood engraving.  Oh, and by the way, the one in the January 2005 auction sold for 741.00.

Thanks, Terry
