Hi, I acquired a small numbered and colorized print framed in the 1930s that at first I thought was George Washington, but then when comparing it it appears to be Thomas Jefferson at a very young age (when compared with features in one of the paintings of him when older from that side of his face), but can't be 100% sure and can find no other paintings of him that young. Would love to confirm its him too, but primarily am trying to identify who the artist of the original painting was. I can't find a signature anywhere. Stamped on the paper on the back is "Borin Art Products, 1325 S. Cicero Ave., Chicago, Framed Pictures and Mirrors," and "#10" . They primarily operated in the 1930s, and also were known for doing some sort of air brushing. It measures about 7-3/4" x 6-3/4" with the frame. The frame is wood two-tone painted with red, and there is a wire hanger with eyehooks on the back. I've never asked a question on here before, and my camera isn't great, but will try to attach a photo with a closeup, a picture of the back, and the photo I was comparing it with of Jefferson. Thank you to anybody who can help me identify this!!! Email is
