Schoolbook Drawing

This schoolbook drawing is a bit small but it does have that wonderful vintage feel. Three schoolbooks are tied with a strap – remember how the kids carried their books on the television show Little House on the Prairie? Then you might recognize how children carried their books to school before we all had backpacks.

1890 Baby’s Annual Pictures and Stories for Little People was published by D. Lothrop Company. It, and all of the images in it, are in the public domain because no illustrator or author was identified.
