    This is a very recent painting I've purchased, tucked away and forgotten about... It has quite a few interesting qualities about it. The artist certainly knew how to paint and had some talent. It is signed but I cannot read signature. On the reverse it has a paper clipping along with a number, almost like it may have been auctioned off at some point. Its listed as an original oil painting and even has the artist name and title of painting but seems to be worn from age and cannot make out. There also seems to be a number after the signature... "65"? I. Not sure... Anyone recognize this artist or their signature?

      Looks more like "69" to me.

      Agree with Bb2, 69!
      End of signature, Dickey ? But the Dickey I found died in 1961...

      I think your right about "69". On the paper piece on the reverse side... The artist name starts with the letters DIA... Or so it looks to be. However, in the signature I do not see a D or an I... The last 3 letters look to be KEY... But other than that I just don't know.
