Dukes Up Beside the Pond, RPPC Portrait of Two Friends Play Boxing historical watercolor colorful paint on the hull

colorful paint on the hull and houses on the shore behind

but it's a particular sort of beauty

with fringe to boot

who looks busy with something

Dukes Up Beside the Pond, RPPC Portrait of Two Friends Play Boxing historical watercolor colorful paint on the hullI can never resist a photo of boxers, even of the just playing around variety. And these two look to have a lot of affection for each other. With what looks to be a barn in the distance, and a tin can floating in the water at lower right. 5 3 8" x 3 3 8". Good condition, general light soiling, unused postcard back. Earlyish 20th century.
