Description

Just once in a blue moon you might get a chance at owning something great in this hobby. When I saw this come up in a recent auction I knew I had to try and sort out art to sell, in order to be in with a chance. Luckily a fellow CAFer wanted all of the art that was on offer. It gutted me to lose those pieces, but this, this is a true gem, that I can stare at for hours on end. I’m a huge Rackham fan but I had never seen this piece prior to the auction. I later found out it was used as a calendar for the Punch Almanac 1907, type and date boxes were superimposed in the pencil sketchy areas. Also a spot colour (red) was used in certain areas. I only have a lo res image of the actual calendar pullout, needless to say I’m on the lookout for an actual paper copy of the Punch Almanac…. Let the search commence. Thanks to Jason for facilitating this very smooth transaction.
