I have found in a charity shop a wm whitaker & co sign that was in a really old frame and looks in perfect condition other than a little rough surface wear in the bottom corner. It measures 21.5 x 15.25 inches.  How do I research it to see if original? There are repro's on the internet but they are a different size altogether.  many thanks for any help

Just found this one on ebay, which I guess is probably like the one you found (or even the same one!):

Not really my area, but the back looks too clean to be old to me, but the printing does look good!

Be careful, buyers, everything in this world is not always as simple as it seems. COULD it be a fake ?
