Beau Garçon, Black Cat Carrying Mouse 1939 Hand-drawn Postcard splint buttocks basket with some loss/cracking of paintA great little drawing of very proud looking black cat marching along with (still quite perky looking) mouse held in its mouth.

Black ink over pencil. Wear to the bottom corners and a tiny tear along the right
