Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (for national reach to collectors), Facebook Marketplace (to avoid high shipping costs of breakable glass), or a local Western-themed auction house.
Selling Tips
Use keywords like 'Western Art', 'Native American', 'Camouflage Art', and 'Signed Limited Edition'. Due to the size and glass, local pickup is preferred. If shipping, use a specialized 'U-Haul Mirror Box' and double-wrap in bubble wrap to prevent glass breakage.
