Earnest and Watchful Young Pilgrim! narrow brush and the dark brown glaze

and the dark brown glaze and irregularity of the form just right

Perfectly executed in upper case italics

no tears at all

Not a lost bead that I can see

this old solitaire board is not for everyone

Earnest and Watchful Young Pilgrim! narrow brush and the dark brown glazeFound digging through a huge old pile of photos, from which I plucked exactly one pure delight to find this pilgrim, clearly meant for me! The costume, the setting, his expression, the branch he grips firmly as if staking his claim to the land this young man was fully committed and completely in character, no doubt about it. 5 3 4" x 3 1 2". Good condition, just a little curling. C. 1940s or so I would guess.
