    Jackson's On Main History:
    Our business was established in 1966 by Claude and William Jackson, father and son, in Hollywood, California. Claude Jackson (now deceased) was a well known West Coast artist who executed numerous fine works many depicting the great movie stars of early Hollywood. Several of his works have been published and those originals now reside in the collections of various noted individuals and institutions. Most notable probably is his depiction of Marilyn Monroe in his 'Red Kimono', 1975, published as the centerfold in Roger Taylor's anthology
    Marilyn in Art
    (1984). For years we operated as a mail order fine art distribution firm selling posters and other contemporary multiples. As time passed we diversified and grew and now we maintain a 3,000 square foot full service walk-in art and antique Gallery in Mt. Sterling, Kentucky. We are fully staffed and equipped to provide prompt professional service and we guarantee ALL sales to be as described. We also are always interested in purchasing quality art works and we pay top dollar. If we can't buy it we will gladly consign it and work diligently for you to insure a prompt and fair sale.

    Origin: Ojuelos, Mexico.

    Material: Unknown engraved stone.
    Ojuelos might hold proof of the hypothesis of Ancient Astronauts. All of our pieces are presumably true alien relics. Of course, as you may understand, no scientific test could undoubtedly confirm that these pieces have been crafted by aliens or under their influence. However, we can guarantee that these are 100% original artifacts dug and picked by locals at the El Cerro del Toro site in Ojuelos de Jalisco, Mexico.
    This is a Unique Extremely-Rare Piece. If it calls you, make sure you secure it fast because it is so easy to lose!
    Artifacts display signs of natural deterioration and degradation. You can zoom in on pictures for detailed appreciation and authenticity evidence. Cleaning the pieces is a complex and expensive process. Please consider some will still come with a few sediments inside the artifact's indentations.
    Some of these ancient artifacts have been tested, obtaining an age from 1000 to 7000 years old. Enthusiast collectors from America, Germany, Austria, and Russia, have paid to carbon date their archeological pieces from Ojuelos; the results have shown up to a staggering 8000 BCE!
    If you wish to run age testing on your artifact, we believe the best option would be Thermoluminescence, it is an absolute method, and harm to the piece would be minimum.

    We do not recommend running a C14 test on the stone itself because you would have to crush it only to try finding organic materials from the inside, and there is no guarantee you will find them.

    Ojuelos podría tener pruebas de la hipótesis de los Antiguos Astronautas. Todas nuestras piezas son presumiblemente verdaderas reliquias alienígenas. Por supuesto, como comprenderá, ninguna prueba científica podría confirmar sin duda que estas piezas han sido elaboradas por extraterrestres o bajo su influencia. Sin embargo, podemos garantizar que se trata de artefactos 100% originales excavados y recogidos por los lugareños en el sitio de El Cerro del Toro en Ojuelos de Jalisco, México.
    Esta es una pieza única y extremadamente rara. Si te llama, asegúrate de asegurarla rápido porque es muy fácil de perder.
    Los artefactos muestran signos de deterioro y degradación natural. Puede ampliar las fotos para una apreciación detallada y pruebas de autenticidad. La limpieza de las piezas es un proceso complejo y costoso. Por favor, considere que algunos vendrán todavía con algunos sedimentos dentro de las hendiduras del artefacto.
    Algunos de estos artefactos antiguos han sido probados, obteniendo una edad de 1000 a 7000 años. Coleccionistas entusiastas de América, Alemania, Austria y Rusia, han pagado para datar con carbono sus piezas arqueológicas de Ojuelos; ¡los resultados han mostrado hasta un asombroso 8000 AEC!
    Si desea realizar pruebas de edad en su artefacto, creemos que la mejor opción sería la termoluminiscencia, es un método absoluto, y el daño a la pieza sería mínimo.
    https://www.oxfordauthentication.com/faqs/
    No recomendamos realizar una prueba de C14 en la propia piedra porque tendría que aplastarla sólo para intentar encontrar materiales orgánicos del interior, y no hay garantía de que los encuentre.
