Irma Virtanem's Very Sweet Crayon Drawings Sketcbook spool 27 7/8" x 18 9/16"Quite a charmer this sketchbook, full of crayon drawings by a young Irma Virtanem of Finland, c. 1920s 40s I believe. The mother mouse surrounded by baby mice may be my favorite, but the rainbow colored sun rising over a native woman with skis in hand is my favorite too! And lots of other good ones clocks and vases of flowers and Turra Linna (Turku Castle) and houses and gardens and horse barns and more. Plus what looks like an ice cream sandwich!?
