A is for AMERICAN PENN!


The 1930's magazine copy of the painting "THE AMERICAN PENN" by J.L.G. Ferris was cut and pasted into a scrapbook long ago by a young lady who loved art. I discovered her beautiful scrapbook from the 1930's a few years ago while antiquing in Ohio!
Enjoy and have a wonderful Alphabet Thursday!

    I guess that's William Penn. The street I live on is named after him. I bet that scrapbook is full of neat things!

    Hi Coralie! For some reason, Blogger hasn't been bringing you up on my favorites, I've wondered where you've been! I've gone back through your posts I've missed, and it was good to see you again. Love this picture, it's so beautiful.
