which similarly feature numerous figures and animals

A really wondeful thing to hang on the wall

and the fabric and stretching around the edges

with some wear to the wood around the edges at the top of the boot and a smallish white scuff mark on the surface of the wood near the top center on one side

Hand-drawn Pen and Ink 1907 Child with Spilled Ink Postcard old wooden sign which similarly feature numerous figuresI'm completely charmed by this antique postcard, hand drawn in black and yellow ink and mailed in 1907 from Halifax, Nova Scotia. Perhaps it is especially because I keenly identify with this clumsy child! I can almost picture the exasperated mother mopping up the mess, then sitting down at the end of an exhausting day to share it with her friend, a Mrs. W. W. Johnston at Springfield Farm. It's in pretty good shape for being more than a hundred years
