    Hello All,
    This is today's booty! I found a few nice things, but this may help most with the home repairs that we're having to do,( tree work, deck repair, house painting,.......Whew!)
    It's an original watercolor of an architectural detail done for Hart & Shape, ( architects of Hillwood, the estate of C.W. Post on the gold coast of Long Island ).
    I found it in a shop where most things were over priced, but this gem was not,( $5.00 )
    It's a beautiful piece, a detail of a fireplace wall with ornamental mouldings. I LOVE IT! ( and would rather keep it )
    If anyone can tell me more about Hart & Shape, I'd really appreciate it.
    Thanks to all,
    Tonino

      I just google the name in inverted commas:
      http://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2008570291/
      One important building among many:
      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Post_Office_(New_Rochelle,_New_York)
      I then had a look at the results in google images and they are really impressive.

      "Hart & Shape"
      The inverted commas I use a lot in searching.
      Google searches for an exact copy of what you define within them rather than combinations of the words.

      "C.W. Post" "hart & shape" gives lots of data too!
