for the details

which looks to read 10 cents each followed with an 8

This is one of several crayon drawings done by a Mary Baker

Plus what looks like a little puff of smoke emanating from the top of the cabin near the center

which lend a sort of mystery and elusiveness to their subjects

Penn's Spells Quality, c. 1920s Penn's Tobacco Tin with Good Graphics wooden mitten stretcher for the detailsNot an especially rare one, a c. 1920s Penn tobacco tin, but I really love the graphics on the lid, and the punning use of a pen nib as means of (calligraphically) spelling quality. Making it a good tin for holding a stash of pens or pencils, I'd say. 6 1 2" x 6 3 8" x 2 3 8". General wear and light rusting all over, just right to me.
