Hello from USA.
I'm writing to ask if anyone here can help ID this painting. Do you
think this is an authentic work by Les Spence? If this painting is
real, I think it was completed prior to November 1970.
Further, I was wondering where or how I may contact this painter? I
think this artist is still living.
Thank you for any help you can give.

Write to the galleries that sell his work. It figures that they see him when
he brings pictures in.
