I have four framed prints of old west scenes by Alice Smith.  I grew
up glancing at these pictures every day and it made me dream of living
in the "old west" some day.  I now am living in Tucson, AZ and these
prints just seem to be drawing me in.  My father passed away two years
ago and I decided to take the pictures home with me from Montana.

Amything at all out ther about ALICE SMITH?

Hello helix228-ga,

Perhaps these are the same prints that you have.

"The Old West - by Alice Smith - RARE", offered by tito5050

eBay

In any event, this auction indicates that the artist's full name was
Alice Ravenel Huger Smith (1876-1958).  Searching for that full name
on search engines will lead you to a fair amount of information,
including a photograph of her studio in Charleston, SC, and a book
about her life.

I hope that this information is helpful.
