Knowing (and Rather Vampiric) Looking Girl Sewing, Antique Photo tin boats This folk art pull toy

This folk art pull toy may be my very very favorite of all of the objects I have had in the shop--to my eye

with not a missing bit or chip that I can see

coarse horsehair bristles (with just a few lighter mixed in)

many of the phrases filling the pages of this notebook feel both extremely significant relative to the moment in American history at which they were written

and there are some light spots on the interior around the lip

Knowing (and Rather Vampiric) Looking Girl Sewing, Antique Photo tin boats This folk art pull toyI really love this photo, with this girl with huge eyes looking one part owl, one part young vampire, with her dramatic raised collar and bow making her look all the more the latter perhaps she is sewing a cape! Great. 4 15 16" x 3 1 2" and in good condition, with black photo album paper adhered to the back.
