A Tiny Sketch by Judges 1958 Found in Brisbane Charity Shop

The Smiths Arms c1955
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

I found a delightful pair of sketches beautifully framed 16cm x 11cm - one of the subjects was a skillfully crafted sketch of the Smith's Arms at Godmanstone - almost identically as it appears in the above photo - it was a real place.
The artist signed his/her name Judges.
The second sketch is of a Dorset cottage in Cerne Abbas the year earlier.
These sketches are a window to a place in a time long ago.

Hi Adaiha, I am the Online Parish Clerk for Cerne Abbas (www.opc-dorset.com) and would love a scanned copy of the Cerne Abbas Cottage sketch for the Cerne Abbas OPC website! Please contact me at claireburns@telus.net and many thanks!
