Joanna's and Mary's Much Battered and Embellished New Merrill Speller tramp art match box simple but lovely backs

simple but lovely backs

but I also love a more unusual hand-carved box with a tramp-y flavor

and I think would look great in most any kitchen

and setting them proudly before H

as are the wheels on the wheelbarrow

Joanna's and Mary's Much Battered and Embellished New Merrill Speller tramp art match box simple but lovely backsI don't think I'll get over my great love of much personalized old school books any time soon, and will keep buying them when I find them, whether anyone else wants them or so! This battered c. 1920s speller, which includes both the names Mary Kerrvck and Johanna Babbit inside, is missing a couple of pages as front, has a spine reinforced with black cloth tape, and is annotated with pencil throughout. What I love most are the drawings on the inside
