I've had no such luck identifiying it. The only picture I had to go off of was this: http://citypaper.net/blogs/clog/wp-content/uploads/2007/07/exorcist-head-spin.jpg and i've typed in a varity of different word combonations on google. I suggest spending a few hours on google looking though hundreds of pictures of tree scenery. Best of luck!
Wouldn't the artwork be a one-of-a-kind original? I can remember the artwork throughout the home, but I don't believe they were reprints of masterpieces or very common prints.

Thanks Epic, thats what I'll probably have to do. I have that photo in 16×20 size. I bought it years ago and Linda refused to sign it- She just had her assistant give me my money back. Though I've seen it for sale many times on ebay signed.

Father Bowdern- Its quite possible being one of a kind, but it does have a familiarity about it
I kind of regonized some of the pictures in the house, or the style. I was pondering this the other night and maybe the studio/company that put out the movie had pictures done by some artists and reuse them in other movies. Props, prop houses, don't they reuse some of that stuff?
Many items are reused over and over again. I believe the twilight zone was known for that. I guess prop houses just kept using stuff until it becomes garbage. It seems now that companies are buying off all the props in current movies and reselling them on their websites (e.g. Premiere Props). I'd love to run through some of the OLD studio prop houses in Hollywood, probably so many pieces laying around that would be priceless to collectors.
Though completely different, I live right near Scranton, Pa, which is where the US version of The Office is based (and former home of Jason Miller)- every year, people from the show come to our Steamtown Mall and collect items from local businesses to use as props for the show.
There are probably chairs and tables and pictures in prop houses that if tied to the right movies, collectors would probanly buy them right up!

That is pretty cool. I live near Chambersburg, PA. I would love to go to Scranton! So much history.
Moreover, there are many duplicate items for quick replacements during filming. For instance, the true number of ruby slippers for Judy Garland in the Wizard of Oz is unknown, however, four of the five found are in collections. I've seen two pairs of them (Smithsonian and Disney World) and they were exact and spot on although they are very disappointingly cheap looking in person.
