(Sketches of Male Portrait Busts and Ship)
1899–1906

A collection of black ink sketches on a piece of aged paper, featuring two portraits of men with facial hair in the upper section, a side profile of another man's head, and a small sketch of a fish in the lower left. On the lower right, there's a drawing of a side-wheel steamboat with smoke trailing from its stacks. The paper has creases and tears, suggesting it is quite old.
