Subject:Chinese scrolls??? Of any value??
Posted By: JT Lang Sun, Apr 01, 2018 IP: 2607:fb90:123b:4847:
I am at my mom's house for the holidays and the subject turns to local auction houses. She whips out these chinese scrolls and asks me if I think she could get any money for them. Cut to you guys. Anyone out there that can translate, identify the author, or appraise these? They were given to her grandfather when he was building refinerys in china in the 50's as a token of gratitude. One of the scrolls has a date of 1956 stamped on it. There are 4 scrolls total, two small, two large.
