Hello all, New today to this board. Looks really interesting.

I have a nice paperweight I would like to know a little more about and it's possible collectable interest and likely value. It has a green baise base. I will try to load a photo but am not too good at techie side  :huh: Any help appreciated

Welcome to the board. These pictorial paperweights tend to have a limited following and as collectors on here are generally more interested in the glass (i.e., not clear glass with a picture applied on the back), you may not get much help. Perhaps look at ebay for similar sold items.
