I have artwork that I'd like to pass along to Mel jr or another legacy of Mel Handelsman Sr. which was gifted to my mother decades ago. My mom, Bette Blome was a fellow antique collector and friends with Shelly (& Mel.) I have a wall frieze molded by Mel during some point of his artistic experimentation. 
Please reach out to help me figure out how to safely get it to a family member.
