Simple Old Painted Chip Carved Tramp Art Wooden Frame alvino bagni this antique oak wood boxI really like the size and relative simplicity and humility of this old tramp art frame, I'd guess earlyish 20th c., making it quite useful for framing for all sorts of things without overwhelming them.

Great condition and super sound
