Framed decorative poem or print titled "Heading South"
Estimated Value
$10-$50
This appears to be a framed decorative print or poem rather than a traditional antique. The visible title reads "Heading South" in script lettering, followed by a short verse in italic text. A handwritten-style signature or printed author name appears near the bottom, but it is not legible enough to confirm authorship. The piece is presented as wall decor, likely mass-produced or custom-framed, and may be part of a series of inspirational, literary, or seasonal prints. The overall style suggests a sentimental decorative item rather than a fine art original.
