with lush cobalt blue hand-painted ginkgo leaf design over white glaze

and feature what appears to be a molded composition head

As a child

I'd really love to have a whole bunch of these

both pretty minor and there seems no threat of beans falling out

Something Like a Match, Late 1800s British Ink Drawing of Animal Cricket Game for the artist with lush cobalt blue hand-paintedQuite a cast of characters in this fun late 19th century British drawing, black ink on white laid paper. I like that cat, frog, and dogs of several species are all playing cricket together, and think the expressions on the faces of the hitter and catcher are both pretty great. My favorite though (in addition to the shin guards) might be the balletic posture of the outfielder! Plus quite a menagerie of fans way in the back. Paper size: 7 1 8" x 5 7 8".
