The Thrill of the Hunt
It was the line "Strangest midget in the world, Ripley's Tent" - scribbled beneath a pencil-sketch on a torn-out art-pad page - that caught my eye at Woodward's in Hampden. Priced at $28 each, I thought it was excellent value for original pencil drawings from 1936. I chose my 4 favorites, and went to the register. Turns out, it was $28 for the entire lot. Thrilled with the steal, I threw in the fantastic porcelain cow trophy head for good measure...
Very good find! I like them grouped in the frame. I have a whole slew of them from my mother's art school days, and this would be a great way to display them. Thanks!
