    This looks to be an old painting of "The Boy Blue." Any information would be great! I bought it at an old school that's been transferred into an antique store.

      Google "Blue Boy and Pinkie" and you'll find lots of info.

      I know a little bit about the history. Does anyone know if it's rare or valuable? It's a small painting.

      Here are a few links that you may find interesting. Put it up on e-bay for a few hundred. I bet someone will buy it.
