Halloween-y Old Paper Cut Snowflakes and Owl! primitive mirror Whether this drawing was in

Whether this drawing was in fact a sketch for a real WearEver advertisement or a student illustration I am not sure

I am sure there were once two of them

I had to double check with an eraser that these hands were drawn in pencil rather than printed

this very fine Northwest Coast Salish tightly coiled lidded basket dates I believe from the late 19th or early 20th century

Halloween-y Old Paper Cut Snowflakes and Owl! primitive mirror Whether this drawing was inIt's been chilly here at night of late, and I can hear the owls out there hooting away, all of which reminds me Halloween is not too far away, which is what this little group of cutouts calls to mind for me. I'm a sucker for paper cutouts of all sorts, but really like how the owl (with pencil drawn face) animates this set, which work well layered atop one another, easily popped into a frame together. Owl measures 5 5 8" wide. Largest "snowflake"
