Illustration of two figures in vintage clothing engaged in what appears to be a dance move or a fall, with one figure upside down in the air and the other standing upright, both holding hands. A small group of onlookers is sketched in the background. The artist's signature is visible at the bottom right.
Illustration of seven cartoon-style characters on a plain background, featuring three men in suits and bowler hats, one of whom is significantly larger and rounder than the others, and two characters in the foreground pointing pistols at each other with puffs of smoke coming from the barrels. The artwork has a whimsical, vintage feel and is signed by the artist in the bottom right corner.
Illustration of a person holding another upside-down person by the leg, with both individuals drawn in a stylized manner against a plain background. The standing person is depicted with a serious expression, wearing a sweater and holding a bag, while the upside-down person appears limp and is dressed in a buttoned outfit with boots. The artist's signature is visible at the bottom right.
