This morning I was looking at this old palette we have in stock. It is initialed and dated 1910 and is really academically quite good. I don't know whether the portrait is of the artist himself or someone else but it is cool. It is available here.
It seems like whenever we get an old palette in with lots of paint glopped on it the piece sells really quickly. Same with one that has a portrait or landscape actually painted on it. The ones that were left just as they were when the artist was using them are like accidental abstract paintings left for us to ponder and enjoy.
