This vintage image is a bit distressed but the goat and little boy don’t look too distressed. The goat almost looks as if he is smiling. A young boy is harnessing up his goat to a wheeled cart.
The scan picked up some of the text on the back of the page but it gives the page an overall mottled look that I find makes it look like it was printed on home made paper. Along with the smudges, I think it works well as a distressed image. It could easily be colorized to truly make it your own.
