Drawing
Opening Day Fishing Season
| Imaginative pen-and-ink drawing of a view across water towards a fisherman wearing waders and holding his spinning rod and creel is crouching on his hands and knees while a large trout leaping from the water squirts him in the face. Turtles, frogs and dragonflies are witnessing the act. In the background are hills and a duck flying in the air. Sid's authorship is in the lower right corner. |
