I have a album that is covered with a print from H Matisse’s famous collection. I doubt it is an original, but his name is stamped into the metal. The album has the famous figure on the front, and plain metal on the back. Dimensions are 9.75” wide by 8.5” tall. It is a gold figure on a copper background.

Dear Rachel, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. My sincere apologies for the delay with the appraisal. The presented object appears to be a guestbook with the measurements of 8.5 x 9.75 inches. The cover of the guestbook was made out of an imprinted copper plate. The motif is one of the famous motifs by Matisse but is not related to the artist himself. This guestbook was made in the late 20th century. Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market. This piece is in good condition and there is no serious damage visible in the images provided. A fair market estimation would be between 30 to 60 USD. This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary. With kind regards, George
