  • RICK: Hey, what's up, man?

  • How you doing?

  • Pretty good.

  • What do we-- obviously, this is a Picasso, huh?

  • It is.

  • Yes, it is.

  • It's a Picasso "La Celestine."

  • What?

  • [laughter]

  • Les, la, la, la, la, la?

  • "La Celestine."

  • "La Celestine"?

  • "La Celestine."

  • When you say those things, you got

  • to say them slow because I'm-- - OK.

  • --I'm slow.

  • [laughs]

  • Yeah, it's a Picasso.

  • God, he did some creepy stuff.

  • Yeah.

  • RICK: [laughs] I mean, the guy was just bizarro.

  • He really, really was.

  • You know, he actually tried to start off doing, like,

  • traditional art.

  • Yeah.

  • And everyone told him he sucked, OK?

  • And then he sort of came up with his own style.

  • No one had really been doing that before.

  • God, he made tons of money, but I

  • know he blew most of his money.

  • He was a lush, and he lived into his 90s.

  • He had, like, a gazillion wives.

  • So he did have to make a lot of art to pay for all that.

  • There-- there's great stories about him too.

  • There's stories about him how he would go into a bar,

  • drink all day long, and then say, you got a piece of paper?

  • He'd draw a little something on it,

  • sign his name at the bottom, and said, here's my bar bill.

  • Oh, you're kidding me.

  • Wow.

  • No, but they didn't have a problem

  • doing it because it was still a hand-drawn

  • original from Picasso.

  • I mean, it wasn't a masterpiece or anything like that.

  • Right.

  • But they still could get a few hundred

  • bucks for it back in the '50s.

  • Right.

  • RICK: Picasso was one of the most famous artists

  • ever to live.

  • He dabbled in a lot of different styles

  • and is responsible for creating some of them.

  • And because of that, some of his works

  • could be worth a literal fortune.

  • So you want to sell it.

  • Yes.

  • Yes, I do.

  • How much you want for it?

  • [sighs] Well, it was purchased for 9, so I--

  • 6,000?

  • His stuff is so all over the place.

  • I-- I really don't get it because you will take

  • one Picasso etching right here and one right here,

  • and one is worth 10 times as much as the other,

  • and I have no idea why.

  • [laughter]

  • And to me, it looks legit, but there is--

  • there's a chance that it could be fake.

  • Right.

  • And-- are you-- are you busy right now?

  • - Actually, no. - OK.

  • Do you mind if we bring it up to my buddy's art gallery?

  • He'll take a look at it. He'll give us a price.

  • Then I can figure out what I can pay you.

  • Yeah, not at all.

  • Give me a second so I can grab my keys.

  • You can follow me up to the form shop.

  • Sounds good.

  • All right.

  • JOHNNY: We're going to head over to the appraiser,

  • and I'm really looking forward to making some money today.

  • [cash register dings]

  • - Moving up in the world. - Moving up.

  • This place is nice.

  • BRETT MALY: I'm president of Art Encounter.

  • I appraise all manner of fine art.

  • We also have a retail gallery, where

  • we sell anything from contemporary artists

  • to old masters.

  • A lot of times what he would do in these pieces

  • is he would put himself in.

  • See, he'd be, you know, this fancy-dressed musketeer

  • character observing what was happening.

  • And a lot of the historians at the time were saying, well,

  • it was him kind of looking back on his career and his life.

  • Ah.

  • And it's a-- it's a nice piece, absolutely.

  • Now, Rick, I know you wouldn't be down here

  • if this was a slam dunk, so.

  • OK, first off, is it real?

  • He's got no paperwork with it.

  • No paperwork, OK.

  • OK.

  • And the other thing is, if it's real, what's it worth?

  • OK, gotcha.

  • Let me take a closer look at it here real quick.

  • Now, what I'm looking for is the plate marks.

  • You would have the same plate marks you'd see on, like,

  • an etching or an engraving.

  • JOHNNY: Right.

  • You can see the plate marks right where the image is,

  • so you can see the indentations there that the copper

  • plate would've made into the paper

  • as it drove into the support.

  • So-- - That's good.

  • So that's good.

  • So it's-- it's definitely an engraving.

  • I've seen this particular image before, and this looks spot on.

  • So based on the particulars of the piece

  • and from what I've read on the history

  • and how the cruise lines got the particulars of this work, I--

  • I think it's a legitimate piece.

  • Ah, that's good.

  • So, all right, now the big question.

  • Is it worth 5 bucks, 5,000 bucks because it's a Picasso?

  • I know one thing that-- that this doesn't have

  • would be a signature.

  • JOHNNY: Right.

  • I-- I know that Picasso did sign a lot of these

  • etchings from the 347 series.

  • Plus, it's a late period etching.

  • So from a value standpoint in a gallery setting for this piece,

  • you're looking somewhere in the $2,000 to $3,000 range.

  • Oh, wow.

  • Yeah.

  • Hmm.

  • I think his family paid 9?

  • Yeah.

  • 9,000.

  • When was this?

  • 2006.

  • OK, yeah, the height of the boom.

  • That's when-- that's when art was just selling like hotcakes.

  • I hate to break it to you.

  • I mean, I'm a--

  • I'm a buyer at 1,500, and that's, like, max.

  • OK, would-- would you possibly do 3?

  • No, because I would lose money at that.

  • Oh, man.

  • I mean, if I can sell it for 2 to 3 grand in my store--

  • Right.

  • --all I'm going to pay you is 1,500 bucks.

  • Right.

  • Right.

  • [sighs]

  • OK, 1,500.

  • OK, cool, man.

  • All right.

  • Grab it, bring it down to the shop.

  • We'll do a little paperwork, and I'll pay you.

  • OK, sounds good.

  • All right. Thanks, Brett.

  • Cool, Rick.

  • Hey, good to see you. Always a pleasure.

  • Hey, it was good seeing you.

  • All right, nice to see you.

  • JOHNNY: I felt that it was worth letting go for 1,500.

  • I could have hung onto it for a few more years, but quite

  • honestly, in my opinion, I don't really

  • think it's going to get any better economy-wise

  • within the next maybe five.

  • Hopefully, I'm wrong.

RICK: Hey, what's up, man?
