Woody Allen Prop?

[Michigan Badger]

I got this "treasure" years ago from someone who claimed it was an original watercolor painting and was used as a prop in one of Woody Allen's films.

I have looked it over under magnification and can't see any printing dot pattern. It does appear to be a real watercolor piece.

I was told then it was done by an illustrator Woody hired.

They just tacked it up in the background and after filming it was taken down and stored with piles of other props.

Anyway, I'd appreciate anything you can find on this painter.

What film? Perhaps the props people or set decorators would still remember.

You could always start watching Woody Allen movies until you see it.

Not a Woody fan. And too, 99.9% of the "props" never make it into a screen shot.

Logic tells me that if it doesnt make it to the screen, it wouldnt have much value in connection to the movie.

Try Vintage Hollywood 7115 Santa Monica Blvd. L.A. (323)733-1360. Might be able to fax a copy to them to ID for you. They helped me with some stuff a year or two ago.

Can't remember the name of the other place, but it's on Hollywood Blvd. about two blocks up from groumans Chinese. Longhair guy named Eric, that is a literal encyclopedia. I'm serious! Not to mention having tons of film stills posters memorbilia piled everywhere, & can find everything in the place?!?! I'm lucky to find my keys in the morning. There's another shop on the Blvd., but I wouldn't recommend him to the devil. Rude condecending & wants a fee just to talk to you. Hope that helps!
