Drawing
Atwood, Hernia & Fosmark Railroad
Line drawing of an engineer driving a whimsical locomotive along railroad tracks through a country scene, in which a bull is seen sitting on the grass and a curious man (maybe a surgeon in a robe?) is standing next to a bent tree trunk and holding a saw. A gull is sitting on a large egg in a nest on the roof of the locomotive. Text at the bottom reads: "Atwood, Hernia & Fosmark Railroad (Easy on the Curves)." |
