Three Kid Drawn Fighter Planes in Pencil emily stockman plate It's definitely the paint job

It's definitely the paint job that really makes it--the perfect creamy white and blood red combo

I love the handle for easy carrying from one spot to another

They bear what I believe their original black stain/paint

which certainly makes one want to get out a real ink pen and write a real letter

as a means of responding to the changed conditions of its mid-20th century context

Three Kid Drawn Fighter Planes in Pencil emily stockman plate It's definitely the paint jobLast one of these c. 1930s kid drawings of planes. I love children's drawing in general, but have a special fondness for ones like these that clearly represent a consuming interest of their maker, and one can just imagine all of these specific planes all meeting in the sky of this young boy's mind! And I'd certainly bet he imagined himself as the little pilot he's made sure to include in each of them. These just make me happy. 8 3 4" x 6 7 8" Good
