Willis Hutchinson 1883 Double-Sided Drawing: Bird with Banner, Horses, Saw and Hammer verdigras though I am not certainI recently listed a bunch of double sided drawings from a small sketchbook by a Willis Hutchinson, dated 1883 84, and am just now getting to listing the final few. Based on a couple of (super sweet!) hand drawn maps, I believe our Willis likely lived in Port Jefferson in Suffolk County, NY, on the North Shore of Long Island. This drawing was the first page of the sketchbook, with Wilis name and the year 1883 spelled out in the banner held in the beak
