Default Richard Bishop...signed Dick Bishop

I purchased 3 paintings at an auction this summer, unbenownst to me they turned out to be Richard Bishop Original oils... The first two a set...were signed and inscribed by Richard Bishop and are typical of his work...I sent them off to one of the large US auction houses to be sold this november. The third I didn't discover till the other day is also a Bishop it is inscribed to the same people the first is inscribed to and it is signed Ethel and Edgar"" (Queeny) Many Thanks Dick Bishop 1952"". It is faint but clearly present at the bottom. I should mention that it is on board and is painted on the front and back...The back is an incomplete landscape with a personal note in what I beleive is Bishops printing. The front is also a land waterscape...The painting is not typical of his work...It is much more primitive and less detailed..and there are no birds present...My question is , Has anyone heard of Richard Bishop signing his nickname to any of his works...Would a doublesided painting with personal notes on it have any extra value to a collector even though they are not particularly good works..

Thanks
