Hi all,
I have a oil painting on canvas board, signature H Dudley Murphy, under signature is circle with letter M. That is all that is on it.
24 by 30, Don't know if it is in original frame, all frame has on back is label Spring Flowers.
Any help would be appreciated.

Don't know how to load pictures in forums, but would be glad to send pic by e-mail.
Also have Artist R. Coloa, Painting signed Ventura of sailboats, Artist Robert Chailloux, and 2 Solid Brass picture frames made in England with pictures in them.
Appreciate any help.

Not sure what help you need. Authentication? Appraisal? Other?
A quick Google search brought up a lot of hits:

I can't find pictures of his frames, Don't have anyone around here that does Appraisal's.
Wanting to sell for the right price.

There's isn't an accredited appraiser on this forum. An appraisal also seldom represents the true market value in a secondary sale.
For an appraiser, contact them via this link:

For reselling, I believe this would qualify with some major auction house who will place a market value on the piece for you. A written appraisal can be $300. plus -- nothing else will really be valid.
I'd also contact Sotheby's, Christie's and Butterfield -- all three can be found with a Google search:

Thank you so much,
You have been a great help.
I will contact them.
