snowberry Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I'm hoping that one of you lovely Omleteers can help me! I was at someone's house earlier & saw a print of a map of St Ives (Cornwall). It was in the style of Where's Wally with an incredible amount of quirky detail in it. It had silly details in it such as 3 witches in the churchyard of the church & a man with a rowing boat pulling someone on waterski's. Plain silly! In the corner was the name J (or T?) A Stewart. However I've tried every combination of words on Google to come up with a result but have had no luck. My Coz thought that this may have been in a Cornwall tourism book a few years ago. Does anyone know anything to help me? Regards, Emma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Do you know what - I think my mum had that picture once - or I did. Don't know what happened to it! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowberry Posted January 29, 2012 Author Share Posted January 29, 2012 *shrieks* Find it! Find it! I was thinking as a last resort to borrow it, take it out it's frame, get it scanned & return it; however, it came with the house, which is rented, so don't want to have an accident & leave the tenant in trouble I could always burgle it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Will ask mum on the phone tonight. It might have been a poster. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitchHazel Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Have you tried phoning/emailing the St Ives tourist office? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowberry Posted January 30, 2012 Author Share Posted January 30, 2012 I rang the library, all the local bookshops, county library; the tourist place was shut! Then a bloke from the Town Council rang to say that he thinks they're in a local gallery. I will be investigating tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitchHazel Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Thinking about local galleries...did you check the back of the frame? If the picture was bought, ready framed, from a gallery, then they will probably have a sticker/label on the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
