Any idea of what to search for? I don't even know the name of the style to begin searching.
I remember one of those from my Grand parents house....
Tacky... you say that like it's a bad thing...
Definitely would be a great addition, and I would bet would garner more comments than most other pieces of art... everyone over 30 probably has a memory of one in a grand parents house...

If I stumble across one somewhere, I will let you know. Initial search of ebay and google didn't turn up what I recollect from my youth, but I'll try to remember to check periodically.
