I have a painting that I believe is by Jackson Pollock. It has no signature, but the white letters on it spell out 'Jackson Pollock'. The provenance suggests it was painted by him in the 1950s and was hidden due to McCarthyism. I want to authenticate this painting. What steps should I take to verify its authenticity?

We will be selling a vintage/retro picture frame at an upcoming show and sale in September. The frame can hold 18 pictures of various sizes and shapes, has good glass, some light scuffing on the metal frame, and general wear and tear. The only means of hanging is by punch-outs on the reverse. What is the approximate value of this frame, and what are some selling suggestions?
