First off let me say that this thing is unique to say the least. I have an idea of what it is but would like some additional information. I think it could be depicting Ebeneezer Scrooge in a grotesque caricature. Late 1800s

all the reproductions I've seen are obvious, this one not so much...any insight is greatly appreciated?

Just a bunch of chicken scratch but their is a message their.

In our lifetime, each of us goes through cycles of new beginnings. Sometimes they are exciting and we just can't wait, and other times they can be sad, upsetting, unexpected and not what we had hoped for. The seasons of life bring us these beginnings and endings over the course of our life, and we must adapt to these changes. However, there is always a guardian, something special watching over you as you walk through each of the doors of the beginnings you hoped for or the endings you wish had never come. You are always protected as you move through each chapter of your life.

Just got this quilt and enamored by the hands stitched into the bottom of it. Based on size, seems to be a husband, wife and child.

Does anyone have or seen similar details on older quilts? Curious to hear thoughts.

Does anyone have any idea about the making or artist?

Yay or nay ?

Charlie Ed and the Sturgeon Moon

In 1926, the circus made a visit to a bustling community in the Canadian Rockies, while unloading the elephants featured in the Wells-Floto circus' show, a stampede resulted in the most unlikely wanderers exploring the Kootney woods.

​For one brief moonlit passage, Charlie Ed belonged to no circus, no road, and no human hand. Beneath the Sturgeon Moon, he wandered the Kootenay forest, an unlikely traveler moving through a landscape that would remember him long after the wilderness gave him back.
