Excellent Child's School Book Drawing, Boy Driving Car with Hand Crank honey colored and with a little research

and with a little research I've identified the signers as a couple from Worchester

with a little wear around the edges

which happily has a pin attached to the back so it can be worn

visible image size would be 6 5/8" x 4 1/2"

Excellent Child's School Book Drawing, Boy Driving Car with Hand Crank honey colored and with a little researchA terrific drawing I think, found in an old primer that was falling apart so I extracted it. I love how the figure was drawn, with these great bowed lines for legs connecting to the pedals, and everything about the drawing really, including the inclusion of the crank at front, which would have taken some turning to get the car going. Just my sort of drawing, late 19th c. I believe. 7 3 16" x 4 9 16". There is a clean tear coming in from the left edge
