Sailor Shipping Out

“Sailor Shipping Out” black and white scrimshaw on sperm whale’s tooth by talented unknown artist. Great composition on this one. Sailor on the dock with his belongings safely stored awaits the incoming ship. Good work by this talented scrimshander. From the collection of one of our clients who is no longer with us. He probably made the stands himself. Not the greatest stands, but serviceable.
