Lisa Snyder, the general manager of the Village Faire Shopping Center, was rooting around in the attic above Carlsbadistan’s Ocean House Restaurant when she found a tube containing a long-lost “22-foot-long, 6-foot-high painting that once hung on the wall” of the restaurant, according to a Michael Burge story in the San Diego Union-Tribune.
The painting was one of three that had been tacked up in the old restaurant, which was known in its heyday as “The Twin Inns.” . . .The canvas – yellowed and slightly misshapen – shows a bosky, pastoral scene and has a signature in the bottom right corner: “J. Morton Patterson, 1/25.” . . . Snyder said the owners haven’t decided what to do with the rediscovered treasure. . . . “It’s more of historic significance than monetary,” she said.
We’ve always wondered what was in those haunted upper rooms.
