I have a picture  called Windmill, and on the back it is
stamped Radio Picture Frame Co., Inc. 104 S 4th Street,
Brooklyn, NY.  Does anyone know anything about it or this
company?  It looks like on the print in the bottom right
corner is the name Henfeld....cant tell exactly, but that is
close.

Thanks,
Christi R

I think that I have the same picture.Mine says on the front
left side it's Raining moonbeams.
If you find out anything please let me know.
The adress for the co. is the same as yours 104 so,4th st.

Hi I have an old picture from the same co. but mince is
nembered and is called spring song......can't seem to find
any info. i am 48 and got this out of an old house in
Missouri when i was 14?

My husband has an old pic, also with "Radio Picture Frame Co
Inc, 1540 Covert St, Brooklyn, NY" printed on the back
cover. It is about 10" X12" and is of a beautiful blue-eyed
blond girl, holding her left hand to her forehead as she
gazes upward. Her hair style appears to be from the 40's. 
The photo shows her from the waist up & she is nude.  It is
really quite lovely.
It would be interesting to learn more about this print.

I also have the 8x10 frame with radio picture frame
co.,inc.1540 covert st. brooklyn, n.y. Right above the stamp
are 2 words stamped , the last one seems to read maple.
interestingly enough it holds a picture of my mother and
grandparents. it looks to come from about 1942-1945.probably
my grandmother removed whatever had been in the frame and
replaced it with the family photo. i'd be curious to know
what had been there.
