One Bloom Blotter

Dublin Core

Title

One Bloom Blotter

Description

1926 One blotter almost 4" x 9" for the months from October through December, 1926. The blotter advertises "Remembrance Advertising." Apparently the maker of this series is C.W. Bloom of Brown & Bigelow on Milk Street in Boston. $10.95 from Carolyn Dias of Norfolk, VA, through eBay, Sept., '05.

This long landscape-formatted blotter has a picture on the left that seems to be in the same series as the pictures on the two blotters found earlier. Once again, I am not sure that I recognize which fable is being presented here. Is a young bear telling a fish story to an older bear? The moral attributed to Aesop here is "Do not believe everything you hear."
