in very good shape

It features three beautiful concentric ribbed bands around both top and bottom

is plenty large to command a shelf

I'm not quite sure how it was intended to be used

It measures about 10" top to bottom along the round edge and about 13" across (I folded it in half and measured 6 1/2" from nose to edge on each side

James Bone Portrait of a Girl in Profile tabletop ironing board in very good shapeFrom a second batch of drawings by Chicago artist James Frederic Bone (1929 2015) I really love this girl or young woman, who seems to carry the weight of the world on her forehead; I think one could project a thousand stories onto her. Hard to beat the line that defines the curl of hair framing her face, and I really love the hard line between her upper and lower lips. Undated, though I believe from the 1960s, and executed in ballpoint pen I believe.
