You could also check at any college who teaches Art History in your area. They can tell you if it is a mass produced mask, or authentic hand made mask. You may be able to download pictures to send. There are other outlets that may be able to help- www.askart.com/price_artwork.aspx

It looks like it is from Africa. You need to see a dealer, as just a picture is not enough for anyone to identify if and give it a value.

It looks like an African painted wooden tribal mask. The paint has faded which may indicate age, and help identify its origin.
